gimp, g'mic: compile or dmg

Reported by: ilikegimp@… Owned by: dbevans (David B. Evans)

Component: ports Version:
Keywords: Cc: yksqpldF3mabnCNA@…
Port: gimp

Description

I never use gimp without G'MIC plugin suite. Being new to macports how can I determine if G'mic is included?

I viewed the portfile from gimp.org osx downloads: https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/graphics/gimp/Portfile

Not seeing a reference to grey's site (g'mic) can I assume g'mic is not included? if true I need not also compile g'mic?

http://gmic.sourceforge.net/gimp.shtml

Can I use the DMG once GIMP is complied? http://sourceforge.net/projects/gmic/files/

Please consider including G'MIC in the portfile

gmic is available as a separate port. Try the port search command.

$ port search gmic
gmic @1.5.0.8_6 (science)
    G'MIC is an interpreter of image processing macros (stand-alone binary and GIMP plug-in).

you can install it using this command

sudo port install gmic

Using the non-MacPorts DMG version probably won't work since MacPorts installs its ports in a different path. Always best to use the MacPorts supplied version -- otherwise we don't guarantee the results.

gmic is not currently part of the gimp bundle because it is not commonly used by everyone and takes some time (cpu and otherwise) to build.

If you have further questions, I suggest asking on the macports-users email list https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users

Replying to devans@…:

gmic is not currently part of the gimp bundle because it is not commonly used by everyone and takes some time (cpu and otherwise) to build.

So perhaps it could be a variant?

After some evaluation of the gmic port, it does, indeed, look like a useful tool especially for the purposes of scientific visualization of multispectral data sets.

Added +gmic variant, as suggested, to gimp in r116042, along with some other minor updates.
