[Gimp-user] unsupported file format

>Who is giving you that message when you do exactly what?

Gimp 2.8.4 when I attempt to open the file, either via menu --> file --> open,
or from the command line using "gimp file.tiff".

Both methods work with "file.tif".

That is most weird, because gimp should open the file even if
it had some totally different or no extension at all.

Can you check if ubuntu does some sort of patching to
gimp 2.8.4?

That's a DOS convention - 32-bit Windows always supported extensions of any
length.

[Gimp-user] unsupported file format

2013-03-08 Thread rht
>That is most weird, because gimp should open the file even if it had some

I agree, filenames are irrelevant to *nix. Magic numbers are used instead.


>Can you check if ubuntu does some sort of patching to gimp 2.8.4?

I don't have to check. Ubuntu patches *every* application. However, there has
been a big stuffup here. The version I have upgraded to (ie, the most recent
upgrade) is a ppa, "2.8.4-2precise0", by "otto-kesselgulasch". Prior to the
point-upgrade to this version GIMP opened anything I cared to throw at it.

I have not reported this bug to Ubuntu because, even though I have been a Ubuntu
user since version 5.04 and meticulously follow the bug reporting procedure, I
have never been able to report a bug in a manner that is acceptable to the
various maintainers. I have posted ithe bug in this forum in the hope that
someone may have a workaround (or the ear of the maintainer).

For the moment I am tacking "cp intermediate.tiff output.tif" onto my initial
command line post-processing in order to produce a file that can be opened up in
GIMP for further visually- guided post-processing.

Why don't you report it to Otto? He is quite responsive.
