Does getdeb provide access to apt throut sources.list?
If so, the best way is to modify your /etc/apt/sources.list adding the
getdeb repository.

If not, try installing first the lib and data debs and then the gimp
one.

My two cents

No, it's not. 2.6 is stable, receiving only bugfixes.

You got it wrong, GIMP 2.7.0 is unstable, GIMP 2.6.7 is stable

Please consider that Gimp 2.6.7 is a developpement version and as such has no 
place in Ubuntu's repositories.

Moreover, if you really want it, compiling it from source is pretty 
straightforward (i've been compiling every gimp since 2.3.9 and never got into 
any serious issue)

>Jozef:
I don't need to defend Ubuntu, nor do I take offense at your comment,
however, consider that, eventually, will offer updates for Gimp to include
2.6.7, but it takes time.  I had to post (on the Ubuntu forum, I think), in
order to install 2.6.6, and something tells me that I had to uninstall a
previous version to do so.  The really great bits of "news" to keep in mind
about all this is that Linux in general makes all of this free and relatively
simple.  For me to uninstall Gimp is also a two click deal, to reinstall
another two clicks.  In the case of 2.6.7, a couple of copy/pastes, all done
in the open and above board.  I don't have to worry about cyber police showing
up at my door or Cyber Trojans jumping out of the 'horse' after I install some
new piece of software, and, for the occasional time when something doesn't
work right away, I have a wonderful site like this one one which to post a
question, and wonderful helpers like you jump in and show me the way.

The problem I posted is really a minor inconvenience, and, Gimp 2.6.6 has
been running happily on my Ubuntu machine since I installed it.

I probably should try some other flavors of Linux (actually, I have - and
even tried to install BSD which, unfortunately, doesn't like my flavor of
video adapter).  Experimenting with OS's is, after all, what initially brought
me to Linux and the Gimp (doubt I would have discovered Gimp from Windows even
though I now have it installed on the Win side of my setup).  Usually, though,
my foray into 'new' OS's occurs when I am redoing my computer setup
(reformatting or changing drives, etc.).  When stuff is working, I usually
just use the computer to do that stuff, if you know what I mean.

Sorry to be so long-winded.  I'll probably take a stab at installing 2.6.7
from scratch sometime today.

Thanks again for the reply.

Caruso

I cannot understand why Ubuntu is celebrated for its ease of use,
considering how many people complain about similar issues and suggest so
complicated solutions.

With Debian, "testing" distribution, to change from GIMP 2.6.6 to GIMP
2.6.7 is automatically done the next time you make an update. This needs
two commands in a terminal, or two clicks on the update-manager.

If the problem is with libgimp I think you will have to uninstall the old 
version of gimp to make it work.

http://lazyubuntu.com/how-to-install-gimp-267-on-ubuntu-904-jaunty-jackalope.html
I assume that the gegl and babl libraries are included in one of the GetDeb 
packages.

Sounds like a bug with Ubuntu's package management, maybe you should report a 
bug against it at launchpad?

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gimp/+filebug

Or did you not try to install it via the package manager? (synaptic, apt, etc)

Ok, sorry.  I'm running Ubuntu 9.04.  I downloaded the three packages and
used the package installer to extract and install two of the three, but
received this error when attempting to install the application package:

Error: Dependency not satisfiable Libgimp 2.0 (>=2.6.7)

So, I guess there is something wrong with my libgimp, but am not certain how
to fix it.

Thanks for your reply.  Hopefully this additional info will help you identify
my problem.

Could you be more specific about the dependency issues ? dpkg should give you 
quite a lot of details about what is going wrong. Also, which ubuntu are you 
using ?

I guess the problem is in versions of babl and gegl but without details I can't 
be sure. (jauty ships with versions 0.0.22, but gimp 2.6.7 needs version 0.1)

[Gimp-user] Installing 2.6.7 in Ubuntu

2009-08-29 Thread Carusoswi
Ok, so, I downloaded Gimp 2.6.7 from GetDeb along with the library files and
the data files.  When I try to run the package installer, I get an error that
there is a dependency problem with the lib files.

Is my problem caused because I have not uninstalled 2.6.6?  I know it's not a
problem uninstalling 2.6.6, but I hate to do that if it isn't necessary - I'm
guessing all my plugins, etc. would have to be reinstalled if 2.6.7 install is
not successful.

Adivse would be most appreciated.  If this question has already been asked,
or if it does not belong here, please let me know and also accept my
apologies.
