Optional , , , , , , , , libwmf, , an (that provides a sendmail program), (this must be compiled with the gtk+-2 backend for the Gimp to use it to create its help browser) and User Notes: Install The Gimp by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --without-gvfs && make To test the results, from an xterm or similar, issue: make check. Now, as the root user: make install The gimp-help tarball contains preformatted HTML for use with external web browsers, the internal Gimp help browser, and HTML renderers. Some of the details have changed in gimp-2.8, but much of this is still relevant. Please also consult . If you downloaded the gimp-help tarball, unpack it and change into the root of the newly created source tree. Issue the following commands as the root user to install the help files: make install --without-gvfs: the choice of the backend to handle URI information, e.g. when dragging images from a browser into the gimp, is made at compile time. This parameter will ensure that curl is used at run-time, instead of gvfs. You can omit this if you are installing gvfs AND will be running gvfsd, e.g. in a GNOME desktop. --without-libpng: This option is necessary if libpng is not installed. --without-libjpeg: This option is necessary if libjpeg is not installed. --without-libtiff: This option is necessary if libtiff is not installed. --disable-python: This option is necessary if you have not installed pygtk. /etc/gimp/2.0/* and ~/.gimp-2.8/gimprc ~/.gimp-2.0/gimprc /etc/gimp/2.0/* The Gimp executes a configuration wizard for each user upon their initial use of the program. The Gimp executes the firefox web browser by default to view the help files. If you do not have firefox, or prefer a different web browser, you can set a new system value in /etc/gimp/2.0/gimprc. Execute the following command as the root user, replacing <browser> with your preferred web browser: echo '(web-browser "<browser> %s")' >> /etc/gimp/2.0/gimprc Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directories gimp, gimp-2.8, gimp-console, gimp-console-2.8, and gimptool-2.0 libgimp-2.0.so, libgimpbase-2.0.so, libgimpcolor-2.0.so, libgimpconfig-2.0.so, libgimpmath-2.0.so, libgimpmodule-2.0.so, libgimpthumb-2.0.so, libgimpui-2.0.so, libgimpwidgets-2.0.so, and many other modules and plugin libraries /etc/gimp, /usr/include/gimp-2.0, /usr/lib/gimp, /usr/share/gimp and /usr/share/gtk-doc/html/libgimp{,base,color,config,math,module,thumb,widgets} Short Descriptions gimp is a symbolic link to gimp-2.8. gimp gimp-2.8 is the Gnu Image Manipulation Program. It works with a variety of image formats and provides a large selection of tools. gimp-2.8 gimp-console is a symbolic link to gimp-console-2.8. gimp-console gimp-console-2.8 is a console program that behaves as if The Gimp was called with the --no-interface command-line option. gimp-console-2.8 gimptool-2.0 is a tool that can build plug-ins or scripts and install them if they are distributed in one source file. gimptool-2.0 can also be used by programs that need to know what libraries and include-paths The Gimp was compiled with. gimptool-2.0 libgimp-2.0.so provides C bindings for The Gimp's Procedural Database (PDB) which offers an interface to core functions and to functionality provided by plug-ins. libgimp-2.0.so libgimpbase-2.0.so provides the C functions for basic Gimp functionality such as determining enumeration data types, gettext translation, determining The Gimp's version number and capabilities, handling data files and accessing the environment. libgimpbase-2.0.so libgimpcolor-2.0.so provides the C functions relating to RGB, HSV and CMYK colors as well as converting colors between different color models and performing adaptive supersampling on an area. libgimpcolor-2.0.so libgimpconfig-2.0.so contains C functions for reading and writing config information. libgimpconfig-2.0.so libgimpmath-2.0.so contains C functions which provide mathematical definitions and macros, manipulate 3x3 transformation matrices, set up and manipulate vectors and the MD5 message-digest algorithm. libgimpmath-2.0.so libgimpmodule-2.0.so provides the C functions which implements module loading using GModule and keeps a list of GimpModule's found in a given searchpath. libgimpmodule-2.0.so libgimpthumb-2.0.so provides the C functions for handling The Gimp's thumbnail objects. libgimpthumb-2.0.so libgimpui-2.0.so contains The Gimp's common user interface functions. libgimpui-2.0.so libgimpwidgets-2.0.so contains The Gimp and GTK's widget creation and manipulation functions. libgimpwidgets-2.0.so
