Re: Gimp Install directory

[Jeff Sheffield]

here is a simple shell script that i use

 install-gimp.sh

#!/bin/sh

date |tee build-start;

make distclean

./configure --prefix=/opt/gimp/gimp-1.1.24 \
--enable-gimpdir=.gimp-1.1.24 --enable-python |tee configure.out; \
make |tee make.out; date |tee build-end;

make install |tee make.install.out

echo "build start time"; cat build-start; 
echo "build end time "; cat build-end

-
note the --enable-gimpdir option that sets the users
preferences up in a different directory than other versions.
I find this to be handy ;)

Gimp Install directory

[Mike Dobbs]

Does anyone know how to get gimp installed and running happy in it's own
direcory without using /usr/local.  I have installed it useing the prefix
option, but it still continues to look in /usr/local for the rcfiles and
user_install.
