Totally agreed falcon_za - I used to use Windows exclusively - with MANY media packages from video to audio and even imaging software such as Photoshop (back in version 4.0) and Flash (starting using version 3.0). The interfaces and features of all the different tools varied SOOO much I needed lots of expensive software in order to do work (even for college/university) quickly and efficiently.
With Linux I have discovered that common libraries handle much of the same task. The frontend/backend seperation is surely one of Free/Open Source software's strongest points. Yet we are still restricted within the frontend to a certain set of GUI elements. Do we use GIMP - even a custom GIMP setup - under a KDE or a GNOME - or install Photoshop 7.0 and pay for a copy of CrossOver (for tech support required incase of fatal freelance reputation killing errors)?
I would dearly love to be able to setup my toolset - the good HCI (Human Computer Interface) once and use it on any program I choose. The dev's seem to have this idea well developed on the backend - yet sadly not on the frontend. Why can't we users decide how the front end works and let programs such as the GIMP handle the inbetween? Giving us features such as non-linear editing, colour correction and DCOP/CORBA (cross program) support?
You mention this to a GNOME dev and you get a RESOLVED/WONT FIX slapped in your face. You mention this to a KDE dev and you get a "We'll consider this in our next release" - which release would that be exactly? I've re-iterated this point every 0.1 release since version 2...
I cannot write c/c++ however I do contribute part of my income when using free/open source software to the respective dev donation boxes. I know this does not automatically earn me the right to expect my features to be included - it does however cause me to feel a little irrate when I see such initiatives as the Open Usability site go up - without even a consideration to what people have been asking for.
I know I can skin an app - I know many non-programmers who can customise desktops, etc and skin apps - who would do so for themselves but then share/do share that customisation with the rest of the world - the earlier these kinds of features are implemented the better - if the GIMP included this functionality in their 2.0.0 release you could almost guarantee a feature for feature clone of Photoshop would be available for download today.
Sorry for the rant if it has upset the dev's among you - but I just don't know what else to say. |

Did anyone tried install gimpshop (gimp-2.2.8-r1) on system with modular xorg?
This what I get:
| Code: |
emerge -vp gimp
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Is there any solution to this?
Sorry for my stupidity:
| Code: |
cd /etc/portage mkdir profile
cd profile
touch virtuals
echo 'virtual/x11 >=xorg-x11-7.0.0_rc3' >> virtuals |
Solved my problem |

Here's an ebuild for the latest version:

Make sure the line PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" exists in your /etc/make.conf
mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/media-gfx/gimpshop/files
Copy the ebuild to /usr/local/portage/media-gfx/gimpshop/gimpshop-2.2.11.ebuild
cp /usr/portage/media-gfx/gimp/files/ltmain_sh-1.5.0-fix-relink.patch /usr/local/portage/media-gfx/gimpshop/files
cd /usr/local/portage/media-gfx/gimpshop
ebuild gimpshop-2.2.11.ebuild digest
emerge media-gfx/gimpshop
for Photoshop menu shortcuts, cp /etc/gimp/2.0/ps-menurc ~/.gimp-2.2/menurc
Enjoy!

| Not so good, it does not compile with libpng-1.2.10, says undefined reference to png_read_destroy and png_write_destroy (when linking). |

Undefined references normally indicate LDFLAG probs any chance of an
and a
| Code: | | ls -1d /var/db/pkg/* |
to help solve issues. Also you /etc/portage/bashrc and relevant configs if you are doing any per ebuild configuring.

No, this is a known issue with GIMP using obsolete functions in libpng. The latest GIMP ebuild has a patch for it.
See bug 136661.

It could be a permissions problem. Your account needs to be root, or one in the portage group.

|

Is there any way to get gimpshop to satisfy the gimp dependency? I want to emerge xsane, but I don't want to install gimp as well. I guess there is the -O nodeps switch to emerge, but is it going to work then? we'll see, I guess...

I've never done it myself, but I believe that emerge has an "inject" option, so that portage will record the existence of a package without actually installing. As others have mentioned, a virtual/gimp would be better.

It's just an error in the ebuild. Easy to fix as follows:
just fix this line:
| Code: |
mv /var/tmp/portage/gimpshop-${PVR}/work/gimp-${PV} /var/tmp/portage/gimpshop-${PVR}/work/gimpshop-${PV}
|
to this:
| Code: |
mv /var/tmp/portage/media-gfx/gimpshop-${PVR}/work/gimp-${PV} /var/tmp/portage/media-gfx/gimpshop-${PVR}/work/gimpshop-${PV}
|
then the ebuild works again. |

well, well... nice hint. I don't know why, but in my directory structure the path was
| Code: | | /var/tmp/portage/portage/gimpshop-${PVR}/work/gimp-${PV} |
(the difference being the second portage directory inside /var/tmp/portage)
so after changing this line to
| Code: | | mv /var/tmp/portage/portage/gimpshop-${PVR}/work/gimp-${PV} /var/tmp/portage/portage/gimpshop-${PVR}/work/gimpshop-${PV} |
gimpshop started to compile (still compiling as I type).
Any clues, why this path is messed up? I set my overlay according to the instructions in the german version of the overlay HowTo as
| Code: | PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage"
PORTAGE_TMPDIR=/var/tmp/portage
|
in /etc/make.conf |
