Description

Gimp.app assumes that X11 is installed and working.

I'm reporting this upstream as well, and will attach that ticket to this one when I have it.

I'm not sure what to think of this ticket.

Gimp.app depends on gimp2. Now, if gimp2 is built with gtk-x11 then X11 has to be there.

If gimp2 is built with gtk-quartz, there is a quartz variant for that.

Reported upstream as bug 498890.

I can launch gimp2 from Terminal.app, but Gimp.app simply throws an error dialog "X11 is required."

OK

First of all, Gimp.app is not part of gimp, it is an independant SF project (in reference to the upstream bug).

So you have gimp built on gtk-quartz and gimp.app looks for X11 ? You need to install "gimp-app +quartz"

Boy do I feel stupid now. Well, maybe we can leverage that bug I submitted to the gimp maintainers to get tighter integration of the two...I have dock icons for gimp-2.4 and gimp.app (oddly enough, when I launch gimp from the command line, it is identified as gimp in the menu, but when I use gimp.app, the menu identifies it as gimp-2.4)
