Re: [Gimp-user] Missing filters in GIMP-2.4.5
Hi, I resolved my problem by deleting the hidden directory /home//.gimp-2.4. This directory, that contains gimp settings, is not deleted when uninstalling gimp. A new installation uses it. That's interesting if you install a new version, but, if it contains an error, this error persists in all new installations. GIMP re-creates this directory on starting again.

Which script-fu plug-in? Where is it? The script-fu plugin that hosts all the scripts and runs them as requested; script-fu is only a plug-in, it is not built into gimp. it's in the system wide gimp plugins directory, which in your case may be /usr/local/gimp-2.4.5/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/ David ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

What is more important is the permissions on the files and directories. If everything is working properly when you are logged in as root but not when you are logged in as a normal user, you have the wrong permissions on the GIMP files and directories. -- Cheers!

In this case, the problem seems to be that normal users don't have permission to read the files in scripts/ directory (or permission to enter the scripts directory). You should check that scripts/ directory has execute permission for all users, and that all files in scripts/ have read permission for all users. In my installation, scripts/ directory has permissions 755, and its contents have permissions 644. This happens automatically upon installation, so I believe something strange has happened on your system to alter the permissions. I admit I do not try altering the prefix in the way you have, it may be an unaccounted bug. Anyway you can work around it by making sure the scripts/ directory has appropriate permissions, and executing 'chmod +x -R *' inside the scripts/ directory One other possibility is that the script-fu plugin executable does not allow any user to execute it (only root), which can be fixed just as readily If one of the above turns out to be the case, we need to work out the origin of the bug and a bug report needs to be filed later.

And a new error message: # /usr/local/gimp-2.4.5/bin/gimp-2.4 Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
