Dear GIMP experts,

I am having troubles to compile the dependencies required to build the latest GEGL/GIMP versions from GIT.

The problem I am facing is the following:

* on one hand, GEGL requires GLIB > 2.44.0

* on the other hand, PyGTK (needed to have python support in GIMP) wants pygobject-2.0, whose latest version I could find is 2.28.6 However, this version must be compiled against a gobject-introspection version prior to this commit: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/commits-list/2011-August/msg03069.html (Deprecate ErrorDomain), otherwise one gets compilation errors due to undefined enum values. So this brings me to 1.29.16 as the latest usable gobject-introspection version (at least according to release dates, see http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gobject-introspection/1.29/ ). However, gobject-introspection-1.29.16 cannot be compiled against glib-2.44.0 because of g_module_* functions having been moved into a sport library, which gobject-introspection-1.29.16 is not linking…

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a recommended set of library versions for compiling GIMP? Or should I patch object-introspection to add the missing glib library?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Carol, Partha,

thanks for your help. I am already using PyGTK-2.24.0, however it searches for pygobject-2.0.pc in the PKG_CONFIG path, and that’s what forces me to use a version of pygobject not newer than 2.28.6…

Partha, could you tell me which combination of library versions are you using for your windows and OS X builds?

Thanks!

Use pygtk-2.24 and you should be fine.

I am guessing you mean the combination of python/pygtk etc.?

I use python version 2.7.5, pycairo 1.10.0, pygobject 2.28.6, pygtk-2.24.

Could you also tell me which version of Glib you are using? That’s what is causing me troubles…

Thanks!

Thanks!

May I also ask your gobject-introspection version?

Sorry. :(

My glib version is 2.53.1

Partha, Kris, Thanks!

I’ve set

--enable-introspection=no

for all the GTK packages and it seems it worked perfectly… no more version inconsistencies.

Try to disable introspection while building pygobject-2, add the following configure option:
