There is, or was, the GUM (GIMP User Manual). I haven't looked at it in a very long time so I don't know if it has been kept up to date or not. One of these days I'll look at some of the Script-Fu documentation and check whether information is missing or out-of-date. I could also check on information related to the other language bindings (Python, perl, and Ruby). It comes down to a question of priorities as I have a lot of projects on my plate. -- Cheers!

[Gimp-user] Gimp 2.10 Debian library problem
I have succeeded to install gimp 2.10 with the deb-package in sid on two computers. On the third however I get this error: gimp gimp: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgegl-0.4.so.0: undefined symbol: babl_process_rows How do I find out what is causing the problem. The same gegl and babl-related packages were installed on the problem computer that worked on the others: wajig list gegl ii libgegl-0.4-0:a 0.4.0-1 amd64Generic Graphics Library ii libgegl-common 0.4.0-1 all Generic Graphics Library -common f... wajig list babl wajig list babl ii libbabl-0.1-0:amd64 0.1.46-2amd64 Dynamic, any to any, pixel format conversion library ii libbabl-dev:amd640.1.46-2amd64 Dynamic, any to any, pixel format conversion library (development files) wajig list gimp wajig list gimp ii gimp 2.10.0-3amd64 GNU Image Manipulation Program ii gimp-data2.10.0-3all Data files for GIMP ii gimp-data-extras 1:2.0.2-1 all Extra brushes and patterns for GIMP ii gimp-python 2.10.0-3amd64 Python scripting support for GIMP ii libgimp2.0 2.10.0-3amd64 Libraries for the GNU Image Manipulation Program I have also installed gimp with flatpak but do not know how to install plugins e.g. the "heal selection" tool to be used there.

Re: [Gimp-user] Update: 2.10.0 now opens.
Thank you all for your answers. In the past, there has been several candidates, but they quickly gave up without writing any text. Gimp-help is written in XML language, that can be transformed into HTML or PDF. You can find an howto in gimp-help-2: https://docs.gimp.org/2.9/en/gimp-contributing.html The best way to find what is to be done is comparing Gimp-2.10 and gimp-help-2, checking whether explanations are still valid for 2.10... You can also consult all the what's-new tutorials published since 2.8 to have an idea about new features. The simplest way to start is writing help for new filters. I'll help you starting.

I am the one and only translator for the Italian language of GIMP and GIMP manual (for more than 10 years now...). My English is not that good, but I've contributed to the manual source in the past not making too many mistakes (apparently... :-). Here I am. As you have, I have other projects to attend to but I'll do what I can. I suppose that a minimum of coordination is advisable though. Just tell me what to do.

The 2.10 release caused a chain reaction here; I paid no attention to flat pack software installation until I looked it up because there's a flat pack GIMP 2.10 release. Now I "have to have that" because the security factor (especially with web browsers, mail software, etc.) is too good to pass up. That means I have to upgrade the OS on my workstation, THEN install GIMP 2.10 and start learning my way around it. Writing 'official' GIMP documentation would be very different from writing tutorials: My nonsense is my nonsense, people can take it or leave it - but the manual? That affects every user who has enough sense to use it, so everything "has to be right, is all." This leads to my first questions: Is there a manual for working on the manual? Is there a formal to-do list for creating / updating manual entries? Is there a pre-publication review process for new and revised manual entries? :o) Steve ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

Yes, I am the only contributor and this gimp-2.8 image is not my priority. It is also an alert about the situation. There is so much work to do, and I am very old (a great grand-father), working very slowly. Seeing so many people writing tutorials on the Web, I can't understand why nobody wants to contribute to gimp-help.
