[Gimp-user] install problem
i don't know if i can email this addres but it's the only addres i saw that could be useful on the gimp home page, but i downloaded gimp through cnet.com and when i try and open the 10.7 meg file it wants to associate the file to a program ( or in other words a program to open it with). is this a result of an incomplete file, or maybe a mac version, or could the problem just be that i need to open it with an install prgram?

[Gimp-user] install probs
Hi all, I had Gimp 2 up and running (from gimp-2.0.0-richard.1mdk.i586.rpm) on Mandrake 10, which was installed as an update from Man 9.1. Installed Gimp 2.0 with no probs, but have since had to reformat. Installed Mandrake 10 as a fresh install, now am having probs getting Gimp 2 to install from same rpm. Keep getting "Installation failed, some files are missing: /mnt/cdrom/gimp-2.0.0-richard.1mdk.i586.rpm You may want to update your urpmi database" Installed urpmi.setup to try and update, have no idea what I am doing, as it seems to want to update the 4 Mandrake install disks, which is not possible. Have tried copying rpm to hard drive and installing from there, same. Tried the rpm from Mandrake cooker site, and get this error message. "Some package requested cannot be installed: gimp2_0-2.0.1-1mdk.i586 (due to unsatisfied libgimpwidgets-2.0.so.0) do you agree ?" As I am unsatisfied most of the time I had to agree :-) What is a libgimpwidget?, which ones do I need?, where would I get them?, and if I can get them, what do I do with them? (without being rude :-) ) Sorry I am a rank beginner here. Any helpfull suggestions would be most gratefully accepted.

[Gimp-user] Install Gimp 2.0
Hi all, I have been watching this list since early March this year and have to admit am getting more confused by the day. I have been using The Gimp to edit my digital photo's (version 1.2.3 which I am very impressed with, very logical to use) and have been watching the list talking about Gimp 2. and would like to try it. I am afraid I have no hope of ever compiling it, so have downloaded a series of rpm's from Xach. I have a couple of questions. 1. Am using Mandrake 9.1, and will use rpmdrake, will these Rpm's be suitable for it? 2. If they are suitable, is there any particular order I should install them in? 3. Do I need to install the Rpm's marked as devel. e.g. atk-devel-1.6.0-1.i386.rpm ? 4. Do I need to remove any files relating to the version I am now using? I have read on this list that the 2 versions will co-exist. Thanks for your patience, we beginners must be a trial to you all, am afraid my brain is getting too old to learn too many new tricks, but am still trying. Take Care Winton The list of Rpm's I downloaded from Xach are listed below. atk-1.6.0-1.i386.rpm (142.4) atk-devel-1.6.0-1.i386.rpm(86.1K) autoconf-2.59-3.noarch.rpm (627.6K) automake-1.8.3-1.noarch.rpm (477.3K) fontconfig-2.2.1-8.1.i386.rpm (113.0K) fontconfig-devel-2.2.1-8.1.i386.rpm (231.4K) gimp-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm (9.2M) gimp-devel-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm (66.1K) gimp-docs-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm (442.7K) glib2-2.4.0-1.i386.rpm (465.1K) glib2-devel-2.4.0-1.i386.rpm (875.8K) gtk2-2.4.0-1.i386.rpm (4.0M) gtk2-devel-2.4.0-1.i386.rpm (1.9M) pango-1.4.0-1.i386.rpm (263.7K) pango-devel-1.4.0-1.i386.rpm (156.5) ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Re: [Gimp-user] install probs
You could also grab a new rpm from a mandrake contrib repository - there probably could be something more up to date for mandrake 10.0 But that won't give you GIMP2.2 anyway, neither will upgrading toMandrake 10.1. But building the GIMP from CVS on a mandrake 10.0 is not an authomatic task, but not too hard. Just try the ./configure scripts, note down what it says is missing, and install from most recent stable tarball, each required software (or from rpm, if there is a compatible version of said package) - the nice side of this is taht once you have everything in place, you can always easily build the latest GIMP.

GIMP looks for the help files in the folder $prefix/share/gimp/2.0/help. I can't tell you what $prefix is for your system. Perhaps just look for the system-wide GIMP brushes folder, then place the help files in the same place.

[Gimp-user] Install on Solaris 8
Downloaded successfully, compiled successfully, and working fine. Except cannot open a png. Search, found the pnglib for Solaris. Downloaded and added the png library, went in properly to /usr/local/lib. But GIMP still cannot open a png. Can anyone offer a why not? -- Thanks-- Jim Clark ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Hello, Squareyes wrote: I have been watching the list talking about Gimp 2. and would like to try it. Good luck :) 1. Am using Mandrake 9.1, and will use rpmdrake, will these Rpm's be suitable for it? I'm not sure. 2. If they are suitable, is there any particular order I should install them in? I know when I was running an RPM based system, I used to try to install the last one first, get the list of dependencies, and install them in order until things worked. That's not an optimal solution :) The approximate order of installation should be glib atk fontconfig pango gtk gimp gimp-docs 3. Do I need to install the Rpm's marked as devel. e.g. atk-devel-1.6.0-1.i386.rpm ? Not unless you plan on compiling the GIMP from source. Nor do you need automake or autoconf, unless you plan to build from CVS. 4. Do I need to remove any files relating to the version I am now using? I have read on this list that the 2 versions will co-exist. You don't need to remove anything. It is possible that your packaging system won't like having 2 versions of the GIMP installed, but IIRC there is a way to force RPM to install a new copy alongside the old one, rather than have it replace it. Hope this helps, Cheers, Dave. -- Dave Neary [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

If I recall correctly you can just put all the RPMs in one directory and do "rpm -Uvh *.rpm". The installation order will then be determined by the internal dependencies. > 3.

When gimp-2.2 is ready it will happily replace gimp-2.0 and plug-ins compiled for gimp-2.0 will continue to work. That's the reason that gimp-2.1 cannot be installed into the same prefix as gimp-2.0. It's supposed to replace it. Currently there's the temporary condition that gimp-2.1 installs quite some things into directories versioned as 2.1. This is supposed to be changed back to 2.0 when gimp-2.2 is ready. Sven ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

I have Slackware Linux 11. Perhaps you should consider using a distribution then that packages the help files for you. Building them from the source is definitely not trivial and it is not something that a user should have to deal with. That's why a reasonable Linux distribution does this for you.

Re: [Gimp-user] install and use gimp without X
I assume you have a network, and another box with the X Window System. The best solution I can think of is to telnet (or shh) to the server, and run the install. This should open the install window on the host you are working from. However you may be slightly hampered by security measures or the lack of information I can provide at the moment.
