Re: [Gimp-developer] PyGimp on Windows XP

[Ryan Krauss]

So, I found this
http://www.gimpusers.com/tutorials/install-python-for-gimp-2-6-windows.html
and think I am going to get things working.  It turns out that even though
the GIMP installer will let me intall Python as long as PyGTK is installed,
it also needs PyCairo and PyGObject to actually work.  And the confirmation
that it is working is a Python-Fu menu item with an option to launch a
console under Filters.

 Install:
 I ran the installer I downloaded from here:
 http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gimp-win/gimp-2.6.7-i686-setup.exe

 with PyGTK installed, if gives me the option to install the Python
 extension (I did this).

 I don't get any error messages, but it doesn't seem like PyGIMP is really
 working.  Unlike in Ubuntu, I don't have any Python menu items under
 Filters, I don't see any place to launch a Python console, and it doesn't
 recognize any of the scripts I have in $HOME\\.gimp-2.6\\plug-ins

 Are there other installation steps I am missing?  How would I know if
 PyGIMP was really working under windows?

 Thanks,

 Ryan

 I am trying to get PyGimp installed and working on Windows XP.  It seems
 like this should be easier than it used to be.  A quick google lead to
 several long install procedures.  I have been using PyGimp in Ubuntu and am
 quite happy with it, but I know need to use it in windows.
 Preparation:
 My computer has Python 2.5 and PyGTK.


I just did this recently on a new machine.

I installed according to this page:
http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/faq.html

Specifically:
quote
# What do I need to do to get Python scripts to work?
# You have to install Python (as of GIMP 2.6.4, both Python 2.5 and
2.6 are supported), PyCairo, PyGObject and PyGTK. If you just intend
to use Python scripts from within GIMP, there is no need to install
GTK+ separately.
If you installed GIMP before installing Python, PyCairo, PyGObject and
PyGTK, run the GIMP installer again to install the GIMP Python
components.
/quote

I followed links and installed the corresponding versions in the
correct order, then gimp.  It works.

FYI the versions I used were-

python-2.5.4.msi
pycairo-1.2.6-1.win32-py2.5.exe
pygobject-2.12.3-1.win32-py2.5.exe
pygtk-2.10.6-1.win32-py2.5.exe
