[Gimp-user] MacPorts Gimp 2.4.0-rc1 installation

2007-08-26 Thread Bettina Lechner
Hi everyone,

I know I should ask someone else. but like Victor Domingos - I post my
question also here - maybe someone of you had the same problem.

I am using macports on mac osx 10.3 and tried to install gimp 2.4.0-rc1.

but it stopped with the following error(s):

Building gtk2 with target all
Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command  cd
/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macport
s.org_release_ports_x11_gtk2/work/gtk+-2.10.14  make all
CFLAGS+=-I/usr/X11R6/include  returned error 2
Command output: gtkprintbackendcups.c:2409: error: request for member
`num_groups' in something not a structure or union

So I contacted the gimp2-maintainer an he answered:

 This problem is related not t gimp but to gtk on 10.3
 
 You can try gtk28 but if that fails, you should ask the gtk2 maintainer
 
 yves

unfortunatly I am not very fit to this things behind a programm... so:
how can I try gtk28?
what is the command? sudo port install gtk28?
should I than install gimp again?
or before uninstall something?
I am running gimp 2.2 (but installed with the dmg file not through macports.
might this be a problem?)
 

---
and is it 
sudo port install gimp2 or gimp ?

I am asking because here it is the gimp2 portfile:
http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/browser/trunk/dports/graphics/g
imp2/Portfile

when you follow the path to gimp (without the 2) it's empty.


sorry for all these questions - but I really need gimp!
can anybody help me?
thank you very much in advance.
tina

Hi Bettina,

indeed your question is not very close releated to GIMP and I'm not  
sure how I can help. For me the MacPorts gimp port works very well.

eeek, I think this might already lead to the error. The OS X 10.3 is  
already pretty old and there are a couple of differences in the  
development environment between 10.3 and 10.4.


 but it stopped with the following error(s):

 Building gtk2 with target all
 Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command  cd
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/

 maintainer

 yves

There is not much to say about this. He is right. You should ask the  
MacPort gtk2 maintainer.


 unfortunatly I am not very fit to this things behind a programm... so:
 how can I try gtk28?
 what is the command? sudo port install gtk28?

try a port search gtk28:
gtk28  x11/gtk28  2.8.20   Gimp  
ToolKit version 2

but I'm pretty sure that GIMP 2.4 needs a more recent gtk than 2.8...


 should I than install gimp again?
 or before uninstall something?
 I am running gimp 2.2 (but installed with the dmg file not through  
 macports.
 might this be a problem?)

If there is nothing else you use MacPorts for, you could completely  
remove it (see http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki/ 
FAQ#HowdoIremoveoruninstallMacPorts ), reinstall it and just do a
sudo port selfupdate; port sync; sudo port install gimp-app gimp

 and is it
 sudo port install gimp2 or gimp ?
does not matter (right now), both insall 2.4.0-rc1

So in the end: mail the gtk2 maintainer - you find his address by  
doing a port info gtk2.
