Re: [Gimp-developer] GIMP 2.9.x AppImage for testing

[Carmelo DrRaw]

Hi everybody!

I have a new update of the GIMP+gmic+PhF appimage package ready for testing: 
https://www.dropbox.com/s/xndf7zlhpjbicdr/gimp-2.9.5-20160826.glibc2.15-x86_64.AppImage?dl=0

This new version comes with an improved desktop integration, which seems to 
work quite well. 

When enabled, the desktop integration will

* put an entry in the applications menu, called "GIMP AppImage"
* add an entry in the "Open with..." context menu of most common file managers
* let you select the appimage as the default program associated to image files

To test this new functionality, you need to:

* get the latest version from here: 
https://www.dropbox.com/s/xndf7zlhpjbicdr/gimp-2.9.5-20160826.glibc2.15-x86_64.AppImage?dl=0
* make the file executable with "chmod a+x"and run it, either from the terminal 
or by double-clicking on it from your file manager
* upon the first execution,choose "Yes" when asked if you want to install a 
.desktop file for the application

New versions of the appimage will automatically detect the presence of an old 
.desktop file and they will prompt you for installing a new one when needed.

The only issue I've encountered so far is that when running the appimage from 
the applications menu, GIMP complains with this error message: "Opening 
'/tmp/.mount_2CANTA/usr/%U' failed: Error opening file: No such file or 
directory". It is harmless but a bit annoying, and I have no idea how to get 
rid of it...

I’ll appreciate any feedback.

Hi Carmelo,

I am interesting in testing the appimage, my system: OpenSUSE Leap 42.1

Re: [Gimp-developer] GIMP 2.9.x AppImage for testing

[Carmelo DrRaw]

Hi everybody!

I have prepared a new version of the GIMP+gmic+PhF appimage package, which can 
be found here: 
https://www.dropbox.com/s/yrpvmc1u5ngcnuw/gimp-2.9.5.glibc2.15-x86_64-20160807.AppImage?dl=0

The main improvements with respect to the first version are the following:

* the gimp configuration directory is now set to ~/.config/GIMP-AppImage
* some bugs on the photoflow side have been fixed
* photoflow is now used as the default RAW loading plug-in. 
* the G'MIC film emulation LUTs are now included by default in the AppImage, 
and can be used out-of-the-box

As a side note, it would be great to have a mechanism to choose the preferred 
RAW loading plug-in, for example an interface to enable/disable individual 
plug-ins… at the moment we have a choice between UFraw, PhotoFlow and 
Darktable, but the latter one always takes priority when Darktable in installed 
on the system.

I’m open for any kind of feedback. Thanks!

Re: [Gimp-developer] GIMP 2.9.x AppImage for testing

[Carmelo DrRaw]

Hi there!

Do you think it would make sense and/or be better to have the appimage 
configuration in a directory different from the default $HOME/.config/GIMP/2.9?

For example $HOME/.config/GIMP-AppImage/2.9

There is currently a bug in the way the configuration directory is searched, 
but while I fix the bug I would like to see if a non-default directory would be 
better...

Thanks!

PS: I am running OpenSUSE with KDE, so AFAIK no Gnome was installed.

Starting your AppImage from the K menu also works fine.

Pardon my ignorance, but what exactly is "Gubuntu" (which is the first time I
heard of it)? This search gives nothing specific -
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=gubuntu&ia=web while this page -
https://ubuntugnome.org/documentation/faq/ reads:

«
Why aren’t you named Gubuntu?

Gubuntu would sound too much like Goobuntu, Google’s internal distribution
of Ubuntu. The GNOME Foundation Board did not want us to use a derivative of
GNOME like GNOMEbuntu as our name. Anyway, we think the name Ubuntu GNOME is a
good example of the simple usability we offer.

Please enlighten me.

I clicked "No" to the "Should I install ... " dialogue, which is why I
saw it again (I didn't want it to touch my system). It would be nice
if it remembered this as a setting.

I think the .AppImage executable contains an embedded compressed zip
file that is temporarily mounted to make gimp think it's installed on
the filesystem. I imagine there's some overhead compared to a real
install.

appimage gimp did feel a bit slow to start. I would be interesting to
benchmark startup.

The standard my paint brushes are included in the package, and should work… did 
you try to use them?

No, it is run each time, because it does not install anything apart from the 
desktop file.

This is hopefully more due to compilation flags than the appimage architecture 
itself. I will try to improve optimisations in the next test version.

Re: [Gimp-developer] GIMP 2.9.x AppImage for testing

[C R]

Tested with:
Ubuntu 16.04 (64bit) with Gnome 3.18.5, 16GB RAM, Lenovo X220 Tablet,
Intel® Core™ i5-2520M CPU @ 2.50GHz × 4

All works well! Does this contain the MyPaint brush library? I can't seem
to find it if it's included.

Also, I only get the message "Should a desktop file ..." on the first run,
then I'm able to run the new desktop file like I do regularly (by hitting
the Super key, and typing GIMP). The appimage only should be run once,
correct?

The only other thing is that running GIMP from the app image is much slower
than GIMP installed from repo. That's probably to be expected, I guess, but
thought it was worth mentioning. It still loads faster than Photoshop! :)

Thanks a lot for all your work, and making this available to everyone!

If you choose OK it should go away… I think a desktop shortcut is quite handy

That’s a task for the Gimp theme makers, I guess. The AppImage uses whatever 
theme is available in git.

Well, that’s already 90% of what is included in the package!

One issue I am trying to figure out is how to enable third-party plug-ins… I‘m 
afraid that the appimage does not allow to run binary plug-ins not originally 
included into it, but I still might be wrong and too pessimistic.
Python-based plug-ins should not be problem though.

Best,
Andrea

It might be that one needs to include the gtk engines in the AppImage...

It seems to work well on gubuntu 16.04! I have some small comments:

* I get the "Should a desktop file ..." install message on every
launch, which is slightly annoying.

* The toolboxes were sized rather small on first launch, but perhaps
that was something carried over from my previous gimp settings. I
resized them larger and the setting was remembered next launch.

* The dark theme is nice, but contrast is too low on some elements.
For example, on the brush select filter. Probably not an issue for you
though.

* I loaded a jpg, imported to working space, applied a gegl filter,
used a mypaint brush, tried a gmic filter, it all seemed to work well,
as far as I can see. I don't have any RAWs handy, so I was unable to
test that.

Re: [Gimp-developer] GIMP 2.9.x AppImage for testing

[Carmelo DrRaw]

Last night I have prepared a first appimage for testing. It contains:

- BABL, GEGL and GIMP from git
- all default mypaint brushes
- G’MIC plug-in from version 1.7.5_pre (latest available)
- PhotoFlow plug-in for opening and processing RAW images

* Link to the AppImage: 
https://www.dropbox.com/s/f57496onpct2zm7/gimp-2.9.5.glibc2.15-x86_64.AppImage?dl=0

The usage is very simple:

- download the appimage anywhere on your disk
- make the .AppImage file executable with chmod u+x
- run the .AppImage file from the console


Any feedback is highly appreciated...

[Gimp-developer] GIMP 2.9.x AppImage for testing

[Carmelo DrRaw]

Dear all,

I am working on an AppImage recipe that gets BABL, GEGL libmypaint and GIMP 
from git, compiles them and bundles them into a portable AppImage.

In case you do not know what an AppImage is, it is a self-contained package 
that allows to run a given application on virtually any Linux distribution, 
without the need of installing any additional package (apart from the AppImage 
itself and the fuse system for mounting the appimage in userspace). They are 
basically the equivalent of OSX DMG packages for Linux.

Is there any volunteer for testing the experimental gimp appimage and give 
feedback? If yes, please specify which distribution will be used for testing.

Thanks!
