#16516: Gimp-app fails to run
-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
Reporter: dersh at alum.mit.edu | Owner: macports-tickets at lists.macosforge.org
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs
Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0
Keywords: gimp app startup script X11 | Port: gimp-app
-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
I have the full gimp-app set installed. I have been using it for a while,
along with Xquartz with no problems. I recently upgraded X11 to 2.3.0 and
now if I double click on the gimp application nothing happens. It doesn't
matter if I first open X11, or not.
I see the following in my system.log:
{{{
Sep 11 14:24:34 adamsmacbook-2 [0x0-0x6ab6ab].org.gimp.Gimp[46642]:
/Applications/MacPorts/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 15:
open-x11: command not found
Sep 11 14:24:34 adamsmacbook-2 [0x0-0x6ab6ab].org.gimp.Gimp[46642]: Unable
to find application named 'XDarwin'
}}}
The script mentioned above contains the following lines, among others:
{{{
cp -f "$CWD/bin/getdisplay.sh" /tmp/
rm -f /tmp/display.$UID
open-x11 /tmp/getdisplay.sh || \
open -a XDarwin /tmp/getdisplay.sh || \
echo ":0" > /tmp/display.$UID
}}}
But neither open-x11 or XDarwin are in my path. It seems that with the
update to 2.3.0 that there is another way to open X11, and these two ways
fail.
There is an easy work around, which is to first open X11 then type gimp at
the command line, and it seems to run just fine. So the problem is just
with the startup script that is part of gimp-app.
