[Gimp-developer] Don't think this is a gimp problem

2011-06-03 Thread Owen
After 4 years on Ubuntu, I am now using Fedora15, but had trouble
building both git and the daily tar ball from
http://gimptest.flamingtext.com

The files libcairo.la and libfreetype.la are not included in the rpms
that fedora use and the autogen.sh failed because it couldn't find
those la files.

This reference;
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Devel_Packages says
they are no longer included, and yhis can be confirmed with an rpm
query.

I also found the same with suse-11.4, but can't find their build
guidelines

The builds I did on Ubuntu-11.04 had no problems and taking
libfreetype.la from that and libcairo.la from a source build and
placing into fedora's /usr/lib/ directory fixed my immediate problem.

I am pretty sure this is all my problem, but wonder if the .la files
are really needed if fedora (and suse?) are no longer packaging them?

Do you have videodev.h

Again, I am only guessing but avcodec_decode_video2 is a variable or
function for decoding video.

What system are you using. just install anything that looks like
avformat, libavcodec, ffmpeg, anything to do with video then recompile
gegl and try again.

you are simply missing something.

just guessing, but when you ran autogen.sh to configure gegl, did you
have this output.


checking for AVFORMAT... yes
checking libavformat/avformat.h usability... yes
checking libavformat/avformat.h presence... yes
checking for libavformat/avformat.h... yes
checking linux/videodev.h usability... yes

So do you have avformat.h

Do you have videodev.h

Ah, as usual, I didn't read your message correctly. I am not sure that
the previous commands I sent were appropriate to the git version.

 From my notes, try

# cd gimp-help-2
# ./autogen.sh
# LINGUAS=en make
# LINGUAS=en make pdf-local


I did it the other day on another machine, brand new fedora, and had

Why don't you start again and follow
http://www.gimpusers.com/news/2009-10-14/compiling-gimp-27-git-ubuntu-904-910.html

According to my INSTALL notes:

You need to have installed GTK+ version 2.18.1 or newer. GIMP also need
a recent versions of GLib (>= 2.22.0) and Pango (>= 1.20.1). Sources
for these can be grabbed from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/.

Hi,

Just wondering what you mean by a "new color mode" (like RGB or
Grayscale)

Or are you thinking about the swatches available. If so, these are
just a text file (look at your palettes) and modify to suit.

With regard to exif data, there is an option in the jpeg save as
dialog to retain or strip out the exif data

Out of curiousity I just converted a jpg with exif to png then ran
exiftool against it and got out some of the exif data, so I am not
sure your "strip out exif data" is a correct statement

AFAIK, exif support has been in gimp for years. IPTC is something new,
though I think exiftool handles it

I think all the paths are getting mixed up

^^   before  ^^^


> bash-3.2#echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
> /usr/qt/3/lib

It is picking up /usr/local because that is what you path has first
(or before /usr/bin )

You are starting Gimp from a console?

You need to set the PATH to see /usr/bin first and the same for
LD_LIBRARY_PATH.to see /usr/lib first

export PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH and
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib


and when you start 2.5, do so from another console with the paths set
to pick up the 2.5 libraries first.


You should actually keep away from /usr/local, the various bashrc and
profile files set up paths to include /usr and /usr/local and it can
get confusing.

Just build in /opt in accordance with the instructions for paths.

I don't know, but did you get any error messages when you started the Gimp from 
the command line?

If it uses python, do you need to call python #!/usr/bin/python?

Does it have the right permissions?

There is a script-fu group on Yahoo, so if you have an account at Yahoo, go to

http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/script-fu/

If your ISP has to charge for that, sounds like bad news to me

Have a look at http://sdf.lonestar.org/index.cgi they used to have a free (but

Just select Colour->Curves->Channel value, select Red/Green/Blue or alpha

The script functions in 2.4, just throws the error message above. So for my

[Gimp-developer] redeye.c and gimp-2.4

2007-11-10 Thread Owen

Tried updating Robert Merkel and Benoit Drooghaag's redeye.c into gimp-2.4 but 
it failed.

I have 2.4 in /opt and called gimptool with that prefix, didn't set any other 
environment variable

Here is a compile error

redeye.c: In function ‘remove_redeye’:
redeye.c:380: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code

This is line 380

static void remove_redeye (GimpDrawable *drawable,GimpPreview *preview)
{ GimpPixelRgn src_rgn, dest_rgn;
   guchar *src, *s;
   guchar *dest, *d;
   gint   progress, max_progress;
   const gint red=0, green=1, blue=2;
   gint   has_alpha, alpha;
   gint   x1, y1, x2, y2;
   gint   x, y;
   gpointer   pr;

And attempting to run the script produces an error dialogue


Procedure 'gimp-progress-init' has been called with a wrong value type
for argument 'gdisplay' (#2). Expected GimpDisplayID, got GimpInt32.

There is a 

  gimp_progress_init ("Removing Redeye...");

which I presume refers back to the declaration. But I can't find a 'gdisplay' 
or 'GimpInt32' so they must be somewhere else


Can anyone give me a clue as to where to look


TIA

You would have needed the latest glib,atk,pango and gtk

They should have been available from Red Hat? 

If they weren't you should have built them like

./configure --prefix-/usr

If you read ./configure --help you will see that unless you do this, it
will be built in /usr/local

Now that it is in /usr/local you need to set  enviroment variables so
that it picks up that library

Try (presume Fedora is sort of standard linux)

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/lib/pkgconfig/

That way it will look at /usr/local before /usr

Your suspicions are correct and as the program is looking for 
GLIB - version >= 2.8.0 I guess you best install glib-2.8 or better

glib-2.8.4.tar.bz2 is probably the one you are after, found at
http://www.gtk.org or direct thru ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.8/

You don't say, but if you are using Windows, then the above advice may not
apply. 

I surprised gtk-2.8 went on without glib-2.8

If you are on *nix, you can do a 'man gimprc'

In my case I wished to have the default interpolation selection set to 

Cubic (Best)

and thanks to Sven, I added this to the bottom of my .gimp-2.2/gimprc file

(interpolation-type cubic)

Other corresspondents suggest it can be done through the File->Preferences
dialogue  but as yet I haven't found that

Presumeably the Windows version gimprc file can be amended likewise.

Thank you.

Possibly of zero relevance but the installation of 2.2Pre installed a

/test/gimp-2.2/etc/gimp/2.0/gimprc

I have a number of other installations and the gimprc file seemed to be
installed in a sub directory that reflected the version, eg,

/opt/etc/gimp/2.1/gimprc

[Gimp-developer] Order of Menu items (2.2Pre2)

2004-11-27 Thread Owen
Could someone advise me what to edit to get the default menu listing for 
interpolation to show "Cubic (Best)" instead of "Linear"

My guess is that it is in one or all of 

app/base/base-enums.c
app/base/base-enums.h

libgimp/gimpenums.h
libgimp/gimpenums.c

But my guesses are usually wrong. There doesn't seem to be any logic to what is 
written in there and what is displayed, but that is simply a lack of my 
comprehension of the C coding

I would experiment by simply changing the order of the interpolation items in 
the above files, but with a couple of hours per build it could be a long 
experiment.

[Gimp-developer] Gimp-2.1.0 and Python

2004-06-11 Thread Owen
I just built 2.1.0 with --enable-python but there was no python on the menus.

So I went and built 2.0.1 --enable-python and configure failed because I didn't have 
pygtk

Installed that and rebuilt both.  Python now shows in the menus.

Perhaps the configure for 2.1.0 doesn't fail on missing pygtk?

Unless you *desperately* need verdana 10, ignore the message.
Alternatively, you may try reinstalling that font.

Thanks to the corresspondence on both these lists, now have gimp-help-2 working.

On this Mdk 9.2 machine, downloaded and installed;

libxslt 10102 was compiled against libxml 20604
libexslt 802 was compiled against libxml 20604

I would call them a "Boutique" collection of brushes and not really a default set.

They all appear to be called "Pasted Layer". It appears that when you modify the name 
of a .gbr file, the name has to be exactly the same number of characters as the 
original name ("Pasted Layer" ie 12) otherwise you get a "file has been truncated 
error"

Anyway, most of them are pretty good.

[Gimp-developer] gimp-freetype-0.3 plugin

2003-10-25 Thread Owen
I installed Mdk 9.2 and Gimp-1.3.21 went on without any trouble (Hooray!)

gimp-freetype-0.3 failed in make

main.c:147: error: too few arguments to function `gimp_plugin_help_register'
make[2]: *** [main.o] Error 1

Commented out the 3 lines around 147 and it made and installed Ok

FWIW

In my case with Mdk 9.1, I downloaded fontconfig-2.2.0.tar.gz but had trouble 
installing it.

1. I had to configure with --disable-docs
2. It exited in make while trying to do something with 
/usr/share/fonts/default/ghostscript (possibly because of a sym link in the 
directory). Removed the ghostscript directory and all was well. 1.3.21 then built 
normally.
3. I notice I have freetype-2.1.5.tar.bz2 in the build directory, so guess must have 
needed that as well.

So far so good

Follow Mr Knuth's technique
Call this one 1.4 which would be followed by
1.41 then
1.414 ... 1.4142136 ad infinitum

This has the advantages of 

a. being the square root of 2, the number so many want
b. The next version number will always be known..


And when GEGL comes along, this will be an exponential jump, so the numbers will begin 
at
2.7 (which will the version of GTK+ at the time)
2.71 ... 2.7182818 

It's a cold, foggy grey miserable day...not much else to do :-)

I have now uploaded the post script file from which the pdf file was
made,
 http://www.webone.com.au/~oc/gimp/keybindings.ps

quick_reference.ps (and tex) is a different document all together. It
shows mouse combinations and actions etc. I have yet to start on that
one.

keybindings.pdf was produced as an alternative to the text file, looks
better.

Anyway, leave it to you.

[Gimp-developer] keybindings.txt and cheat_sheet.txt

2003-03-09 Thread Owen
keybindings.txt has been rewritten.  See
http://www.webone.com.au/~oc/gimp/kb.html   The txt, tex and pdf
versions are referenced there for download. The txt version looks
awful,varies with editor...see pdf version


Some comments are;

Conflict of shortcut keys  C

Clone is shown as  C on the main dialogue box and also
Image->Tools->Paint Tools->Clone is shown as   C
Color picker is selected, and shown, byC   on the main dialogue box
and also Image->Tools->Selection Tools->By Color select

Same same for Blur or Sharpen Vs Bezier   Conflict ofB

Presume these are documented bugs as only one of them works

1.2 stated
"The GIMP also comes with a menurc that will implement Adobe
Photoshop style keybindings, if you are used to Photoshop, this
may prove helpful. To use it, rename ps-menurc to menurc and
put it in ~/gimp-1.2, overwriting the one that is already there
(you may want to make a backup first)."

But seems to be different with GTK2


Path key bindings shown, but do not operate in Channel Ops and path Ops


I will look at the "mouse" cheat sheets once I work out how to get my
two button mouse working as three button mouse

Is the tex file still around for quick_reference?

[Gimp-developer] Gimp binary size

2003-01-28 Thread Owen
I apologize for this question

The Gimp 1.2 I have is  2113804 bytes, it came with the MDK 9 distro
The Gimp 1.3.11 was 3597994 bytes, officially released 1.3.11
A recent Gimp 1.3.12 was 38551604 from one of the CVS repositories

Why are the binaries of the 1.3 series  15 times the size of 1.2 ?

With the exception of the delete and copy images, the others are just redrawn gfig

For the GFig "About" graphic, do you want something similiar?

[Gimp-developer] gdk_set/get_use_xshm()

2001-09-05 Thread Owen Taylor


The GIMP currently does something a bit peculiar - it calls 
gdk_get_use_xshm() and then passes the values it gets from this
to plugins, which call gdk_set_use_xshm().

I suppose the reasoning here is to propagate the command line
--no-xshm to each plugin. If GTK+ is autodetecting the value of
gdk_use_xshm, as it normally does, then the plugins could
do that themselves just as well.

What I'd like to do is one or more of:

 - Make gdk_set/get_use_xshm() correspond exactly to the command
   line option, instead of a mix of the command line option
   and what has been autodetected so far.
 
 - Deprecate gdk_set/get_use_xshm().

 - Remove the --no-xshm command line option

I believe that the problems that --no-xshm was added to deal
with have most or all been fixed now and represented bugs in
the GTK+ shm code. It really makes little sense to me to
have a command line option to enable a bug workaround ...

I doubt people want to type gimp --no-xshm all the time, so
I suspect that if we needed a way of enabling a workaround
for this, as an environment variable would make more sense.

Do people use this command line option? Is my understanding
of what the GIMP is doing correct?

Regards,
    Owen
