GIMP-Devel in BunsenLabs

Head_on_a_Stick · 2016-12-09 19:19:51

The very latest GIMP development version is available as a flatpak and can be easily installed in BunsenLabs without disturbing the dependency chain.

The flatpak package is now available in the Debian jessie-backports repositories, to add these to your sources use:

sudo apt edit-sources

Then add this line:

deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main contrib non-free

And update the package database and install flatpak:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -t jessie-backports flatpak

Now we can use flatpak to install some containerised programs smile

For GIMP, we need GNOME's nightly-graphics repository and the stable runtime libraries:

flatpak remote-add --from gnome https://sdk.gnome.org/gnome.flatpakrepo
flatpak remote-add --from nightly-graphics http://209.132.179.2/nightly-graphics.flatpakrepo

The available applications can then be listed with:

flatpak remote-ls nightly-graphics --app

To install GIMP, use:

flatpak install nightly-graphics org.gimp.GimpDevel

The GIMP-Devel package can then be run with:

flatpak run org.gimp.GimpDevel

Update the package with:

flatpak update org.gimp.GimpDevel

Isn't the Linux community AWESOME! So many ways to do amazing things, and people like you to show us the way big_smile

Nice, testing now.

p.s. Got it working, now is that gimp supposed to have the "save for web" thing (I don't see it)?

Erm, sorry, I don't know what that is hmm

Is this version not the same as the one Steve is packaging?

Let's see, I'm updating GIMP to a git version from a couple of days ago into the multimedia OBS repository (gegl seems to need a recent ffmpeg to build against instead of Jessie's libav).

Mr. Google says "save for web" is a plugin in the "gimp plugin registry", and the version in Jessie might not be working with a newer GIMP. It probably needs to rebuild against the newer libgimp. Let me put the version of that from the gimp-edge PPA in there, too. There's some other addons there that probably need to go in the repo as well.

The current flatpak package is at commit 679038, the runtime libraries installed with the package are supposed to ensure functionality irrespective of the host operating system but I'm not familiar enough with the GIMP to verify this properly.

stevep · 2016-12-11 22:10:43

I did more research on the gimp-plugin-registry package after it failed to build in my OBS repo. It seems to be incompatible with the current development version of GIMP. The version in the gimp-edge PPA was last built back in 2014, and it looks to be abandoned upstream. There was some talk about incorporating them into the main gimp-devel package, but that seems to still be on the to-do list.

stevep, HoaS, thanks.

$ flatpak install nightly-graphics org.gimp.GimpDevel

....error: Can't pull from untrusted non-gpg verified remote

I got round this by running it as root

$ sudo flatpak install nightly-graphics org.gimp.GimpDevel

And the command I'm using on an optimus laptop is...

optirun flatpak run org.gimp.GimpDevel

Thanks HoaS - how sweet that command is big_smile

(Mind you, it has taken me a week to finally get it all sorted monkey But I have finally got Blender and Gimp 2.9 running in BL stretch, using nvidia GPU rendering, on this machine. Bye,bye Mint partition! Maybe)

Hello!

Installing flatpack and adding the repo worked out quit nice, but trying to install gimp i get this error:

Fehler: GPG verification enabled, but no summary signatures found (use gpg-verify-summary=false in remote config to disable)

Does anyone know how to solve this? (running the comand via sudo doesn't help)

damo · 2017-03-17 18:50:24

Lots of hits if you google that error message. When it happened to me the first time I did...

flatpak remote-modify --no-gpg-verify

Then try installing again

Naik · 2017-03-17 20:25:38

^ Thanks for that. To be honest i googled it myself and did as you (and some others) supposed, but was then getting the message:

Maybe try...

$ flatpak remote-add --gpg-import=nightly.gpg nightly-graphics http://209.132.179.2/repo/

Naik · 2017-03-17 21:49:27

^ tried this one too...

It seems like the output posted earlier is the closest i can get to installing GimpDevl.

stevep · 2017-03-18 00:33:56

I've also just updated GIMP to 2.9.5~93, sourced from the gimp-edge PPA, in my multimedia OBS repo. I also added an updated version of the gimp-plugin-registry that builds against the new libgimp2 successfully, but one of the ways this was accomplished was by dropping a few plugins, including the "save for web".

Head_on_a_Stick · 2017-03-18 00:37:33

For the record, I've just installed GIMP-Devel in a stretch system and I also got those gpg errors at first but this command fixed things (I'm installing locally, hence the "--user" flag):

flatpak --user remote-modify --no-gpg-verify nightly-graphics http://209.132.179.2/nightly-graphics.flatpakrepo

@Naik, I have no idea why that isn't working for you hmm

Naik · 2017-03-18 09:08:30

^ I Think i'm just not supposed to install this by now:

naik@BL-TX:~/bin$ flatpak remote-add --gpg-import=nightly.gpg --user nightly-graphics http://209.132.179.2/nightly-graphics.flatpakrepo
naik@BL-TX:~/bin$ flatpak install nightly-graphics org.gimp.GimpDevel master
Fehler: Remote "nightly-graphics" not found

(am I challenged by reading or does it look like it can't find the repo i just successfully added?)

UPDATE: forcing the installation without verifying the signature and installing it locally did the trick for me

naik@BL-TX:~/bin$ flatpak remote-modify --no-gpg-verify --user nightly-graphics http://209.132.179.2/nightly-graphics.flatpakrepo
naik@BL-TX:~/bin$ flatpak install --user nightly-graphics org.gimp.GimpDevel masterInstalling: org.gimp.GimpDevel/x86_64/master from nightly-graphics

Installing: org.gimp.GimpDevel.Locale/x86_64/master from nightly-graphics

Well, thanks for the help anyways...

UPDATE2: I got to play with it a little and i love it!
Thanks for that! I can't way to see this coming into the repos...

If you're talking about gimp 2.9.X in an official Debian repository, you will just have to wait, since I don't think it's in Debian at all. Debian Jessie does have the build in my unofficial repo, though.

Debian will never have it, AFAIK - 2.9 is the development version. The next official release will be 2.10, which will be ready......when it is ready.

Naik · 2017-03-18 20:43:26

^
Thats enough for me, i just love the new compact toolkit and don' t think they will leave this behind in 2.10...

damo · 2017-03-18 20:59:46

^ And checkout the themes and icons choices. I made a home-brew flat set for 2.8, but now it is provided smile
