I can’t seem to get the GIMP 3.0 AppImage from the official GIMP downloads page to run on Linux (Manjaro). When starting from the terminal, I get a message relating to Fuse. I have Fuse installed and all other AppImages work fine. I’ve tried the troble shooting guide on the wiki, but still no joy.
I will get around to posting a screenshot of the actual message – I’m just not at my desk right now. I was more curious to see if any other Linux (particularly Manjaro) users have encountered this.
It’s likely an easy fix, and apologise for my lasiness at this point, but just thought I’d ask the question out of curiousity in case there was a general known solution.
@martbetz Sorry I can’t answer your question directly, but it may add to the general information to know that the GIMP3 Appimage does run ‘out of the box’ on Debian 12. However, it’s very new, and there are still alot of glitches, the greatest of which for photographers is that it doesn’t call darktable to open RAW files as it should (and I for one can’t get that working). There are lots of other more minor irritations (GIMP not remembering the positions of windows, etc). It’s clearly a work in progress, so you may have hit one of these early bumps.
I wanted to keep the older version of GIMP for now due to custom plugins, etc.
I’ll find a solution when I get around to looking properly - I’m up to my eyes with doing backups at the moment. It’s no big deal - just wondered if anyone else running Manjaro encounteted the same.
Since there is a error code about fuse, this can be some bug on the type2-runtime we use to make the AppImage. There is the tracker for report purposes: Issues · AppImage/type2-runtime
