BUG: gimp2 configure script fails to find GTK+2

[carson@…]

I am using DarwinPorts 1.011 (installed in the default /opt/local) on OS X 10.3.9. Excuting "port install gimp2" correctly installs the gtk2 port; however, once it actually gets around to installing gimp2 itself, the configure script fails to find GTK. The output is:

there is a newer gimp version available, if that does not solve your case, send the dports/graphics/gimp2/ work/gimp-2.2.8/config.log

Gimp 2.2.8 config.log file

[scott@…]

(From update of attachment 3555) I'm having the exact same problem as the submitter. I am running OS X 10.4.2 and have DarwinPorts 1.011.

My pkgconfig is updated and I recently ran "sudo port -d selfupdate"

I have attached my config.log in my previous post to help resolve this.

[fabianwenk (Fabian Wenk)]

Had the same problem just before, eg. after a port selfupdate/sync where a few ports needed upgrade on which also gimp2 depends. I'm running on MacOS X 10.3.9.

After the upgrade of gimp-print from 4.2.6_0 to 4.2.6_1 I wanted to check if the problem I had with the last upgrade of gimp2 still exists. It does, see #4666

I solved the problem with gimp2 not finding GTK2 after upgrading fontconfig, xrender, Xft2 and pango. Then also a 'port uninstall gtk2', 'port clean --archive --work gtk2' and 'port install gtk2' was needed. Afterwards the gimp2 configure was happy with the installed version 2.6.8_0 of gtk2. Probably also the problem with gimp-print needs to be solved for installing gimp2, see URL above.

I tried Fabian's solution and was able to successfully install and run Gimp 2.2.8.

I cannot duplicate this now. This can be closed.
