GIMP AppImage (continuous integration)

Re: GIMP_AppImage-git-2.10.7-withplugins-20180920-x86_64.AppImage
G’MIC crashes and does not open. Screenshot attached. System Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia updated.Screenshot_2018-09-21_10-40-11

Could you please check if the previous *withplugins* version works for you?

Thanks!

Yes, the earlier version works. I also observe the differance in size of both the releases. The latest one is 10mb smaller. I hope this is due to optimizing only.

I discovered some mistake in the startup scripts of the AppImage package (I am still developing the scripts to make them more readable and general).

Could you please check the latest package (https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-appimage/releases/download/continuous/GIMP_AppImage-git-2.10.7-withplugins-20180921-x86_64.AppImage)? I did a quick check and G’MIC seems to work fine now.

Thanks. G’MIC is working in this latest Appimage on my system. Thanks once again for your dedication and hardwork.

The latest release fixes my mouse issue ! :partying_face: :tada: :confetti_ball:

Glad to know! I must say that this is entirely a merit of the GIMP developers.

Thank you for the Appimage it’s working really fine and saves me a lot of troubles when updating version!

I’m using it with Ubuntu Mate 64 bit 18.04.1, i have a little problem with the icon that isn’t

in the menus.

I attach a screenshot. This happens with every mate theme, being it Cupertino or traditional or redmond.

Thank you in advance.

Happy to hear that!

I will investigate the icon problem, I have created an issue on GitHub not to forget about it: Missing menu icon under Ubuntu · Issue #25 · aferrero2707/gimp-appimage · GitHub

Screenshot attached (the first gimp entry is the one from ubuntu repos, the one without icons the appimage)

Hi, i am using GIMP_AppImage-release-2.10.8-withplugins-x86_64.AppImage from Releases · aferrero2707/gimp-appimage · GitHub .

I was trying to add grain via G’MIC, but seems it isn’t possible to do so. I get a preview timeout.

Thank you in advance.

Is this the only GMIC filter that doesn’t work for you? Ping @David_Tschumperle for possible know issues?

No, have same issue with film emulations also. G’MIC from GIMP_AppImage-release-2.10.8-withplugins-x86_64.AppImage:

G’MIC from GIMP_AppImage-git-2.10.9-withplugins-20190228-x86_64.AppImage:

and G’MIC from ppa otto-kesselgulasch/gimp:

I think this is a problem with appimage.

@Carmelo_DrRaw,

sorry I forgot to say that I use Kubuntu 18.04.

@David_Tschumperle do you have any idea what could be the reason for the preview timeout that @s7habo is reporting? Or how to investigate it?

@David_Tschumperle, @Carmelo_DrRaw:

in the G’MIC settings dialog you can set timeout, but it doesn’t work. No matter what value I set, I immediately get timeout message.

Do other settings work, or are all of them ignored?

Other settings work (changed preview layout, theme and logos):
