Re: [Gimp-user] Compile GIMPv2.9.1 for Debian (Wheezy/Sid)
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Yesterday I built on Debian Wheezy, too, but not into the system directories (/usr/bin etc.), but to local directories under my non-privileged users $HOME. I downloaded all dependencies (also the optional), built BABL and GEGL and tried building GIMP. GIMPs autogen ends with no errors. But GIMPs make fails in the 'cursors' directory: Making all in cursors make[2]: Entering directory `/home/gimpdev/Workspace/gimp/cursors' GENtool-cursors.list GENgimp-tool-cursors.h failed to load ./cursor-bad.png: Couldn't recognize the image file format for file './cursor-bad.png' make[2]: *** [gimp-tool-cursors.h] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/gimpdev/Workspace/gimp/cursors' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/gimpdev/Workspace/gimp' make: *** [all] Error 2 I found out, that downloading the latest stable GLib (2.34.3) and GDK-Pixbuf (2.26.10) and building them from sources into my $INSTALL_PREFIX solved it. However, I don't understand why this doesn't work out of the box with the GLIb and GDK-Pixbuf packages from the distro. A bit of research led me to refreshing the GDK-Pixbuf cache (file loaders.cache somewhere under /usr/lib). Nevertheless building the cursors directory succeeds only when building as root, but fails for normal users. As I saw such effects have been an issue for years in various GTK based products and with various filetypes. Does anybody have some ideas how we can have them working and not breaking the GIMP build out of the box?

[Gimp-user] Compile GIMPv2.9.1 for Debian (Wheezy/Sid)
I didn't have any issues, other than having to uninstall as mentioned above. Maybe I had something else installed that didn't require me to have what you had missing. The only issue's I'm finding thus far, is the speed at which GIMP is running, rather slowly, and take a full 30 seconds to updated 5400+px wide image (I forget the vertical res). Mind you, this is the size of the RAW image converted to 16-bit tiff of my Camera. I'm currently looking if there's any debugging, or other stuff that can be turned off, and recompiled, to speed things up. I'm running it on Debian GNU/Linux (Sid) on an AMD6Core 3.4GHZ, 16GB RAM, 3GB nVidia 580GTX, and SSD HD. I'd be open to suggestions to get GIMP working faster. -- studiojunkyard (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

Removing babl and gegl is optional, but probably necessary in your case because: [babl] ./autogen.sh make make install This will install to /usr/local, and can lead to conflicts with the libraries and gimp installed by your package management. You should pass a --prefix parameter to ./autogen.sh Have a look at http://www.gimp.org/source/howtos/gimp-git-build.html for a different approach. -- Regards, Michael ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
[Gimp-user] Compile GIMPv2.9.1 for Debian (Wheezy/Sid)
It looks as though the way you suggest, would pull in the dependencies for GIMP 2.8, which is the latest stable in the Repo. What I described pulls the latest development files from git. Big difference. GIMP 2.8, doesn't support 16/32bit Editing, which was the reason for building v2.9.1 for me at least in the first place. Though I agree that building as root can be dangerous. -- studiojunkyard (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
[Gimp-user] Compile GIMPv2.9.1 for Debian (Wheezy/Sid)
I recently compiled v2.9.1 GIMP on Debian (Wheezy/Sid), this is for Debian
itself, not modified Debian Distro's (such as Ubuntu), though the instructions
may work, I'm not responsible for breaking your system:
As root in a terminal do as below:
apt-get install libjpeg8-dev libopenexr-dev libopenraw-dev libcairo2-dev
librsvg2-dev automake autoconf intltool pkg-config liblua5.1-0-dev gtk-doc-tools
libtiff5-dev python-gtk2-dev libasound2-dev libgimp2.0 libgimp2.0-dev
apt-get remove --purge libgegl-0.1-0 libgegl-0.2-0 libgegl-dev libbabl-0.1-0
libbabl-dev gimp
mkdir /home/{usr}/gimp
cd /home/{usr}/gimp
git clone git://git.gnome.org/babl
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gegl
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gimp
[babl]
./autogen.sh
make
make install
[gegl]
./autogen.sh
make
make install
[gimp]
./autogen.sh
make
make install
For some reason, we had to do a complete remove of libgimp2.0, then reinstall it
for GIMP to work, even though the -dev for it needs to be available to compile.
We also found, that if you previously had GIMP installed using the already
present Menu Option will run the 2.9.1 version. Or, alternatively, and I
recommened for first time run, do as below, so if GIMP doesn't open or crashes
you can see why.
/usr/local/bin/gimp-2.9
Enjoy.
