[Gimp-user] Email for Dark Refraction?

I have never tried to build GIMP.  No doubt it is simple and easy, but...

I certainly have little enough confidence in my knowledge of 
Windows to try to build GIMP for Windows in WINE on my Linux system...

I just wanted a ready-to-go latest 2.9 unstable executable for Windows that I 
could run under WINE,
and Dark Refractions is the only place I have been able to find it so far...

Lubuntu 16.04 should offer all the dependencies to build babl, gegl and
GIMP from their respective master branches.

[Gimp-user] Email for Dark Refraction?

2016-10-15 Thread scott092707 
Hi.

I use GIMP 2.8.16 on Lubuntu 16.04 LTS. (No doubt when 16.10 is available and I 
install it, I will have 2.8.18 available)

I ALSO use Dark Refraction's nightly builds 2.9.x versions for Windows, used 
through WINE,
as I sometimes want a feature not available in the 2.8 series.
(I have both, because I need to be able to use GIMP, and If I only have the 
unstable version, and it crashes, then I would
either have nothing to use, or would have to un-install it, and install the 
stable version, just to edit a photo...)

However, the last two times I have been able to download versions (DR has 
sometimes been unavailable for long stretches)
the program fails with:

scott@scott-Asus-M2N68-AM-Plus:~$ wine 
/data/scott/Downloads/gimp-dev-i686-2016-08-02/bin/gimp-2.9.exe

I have no problem with the 2.9.3 version that is dated 2015-12-02.

I have wanted to submit a bug-report for this, but I have had no luck in 
finding a place to do this.
I have searched in vain for an email for DR, so that at least I could email 
him/her/them with the above issue.

Does anyone know how to contact DR?

-Scott

P.S.  Obviously, I would also be interested in hearing if anyone knows what the 
above error means, and especially if there is a 
"quick fix" for it...

P.P.S.  Meanwhile, I suppose I will look into trying to get the latest Windows 
stable unstable (!)  2.9 series, which I believe is 2.9.4...
