%general-entities; ]> gimp-&gimp-version; gimp Introduction to Gimp The Gimp package contains the GNU Image Manipulation Program which is useful for photo retouching, image composition, and image authoring. This package is a snapshot of the upcoming stable release of gimp3. It avoids several deprecated dependencies, notably gtk2. &lfs121_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &gimp-md5sum; Download size: &gimp-size; Estimated disk space required: &gimp-buildsize; Estimated build time: &gimp-time; Additional Downloads The help files English version is complete, but large parts of the text for many other languages are not yet translated.

Now, as the &root; user: ninja install Installation of Gimp-Help The gimp-help tarball contains images and English text help for help files, together with translations. If you wish to install local copies of the help files to read offline, unpack the gimp-help tarball and change into the root of the newly created source tree. tar -xf ../../gimp3-help-&gimp-help-version;.tar.xz && cd gimp3-help-&gimp-help-version; ALL_LINGUAS="ca cs da de en en_GB es fa fr hr ko lt nl nn pt pt_BR ro sl sv uk zh_CN" \ ./configure --prefix=/usr Remove from ALL_LINGUAS the codes for any languages which you do not wish to install. Alternatively, remove the line starting with ALL_LINGUAS, if you wish to build all languages. Now build the help files: make Issue the following commands as the &root; user to install the help files: make install && chown -R root:root /usr/share/gimp/3.0/help Command Explanations ALL_LINGUAS="ca cs da de en en_GB es fa...": by default, the help files will be rendered in all the available languages. Remove the codes of any languages you do not wish to build.
