in thread install gimp, gimp::fu

Thanks for your help. I installed the packages and then tried to install Gimp: . It failed tests 19-20 & 25-26 and exited without installing. I'm getting a feeling that it's just a bridge too far. dgd

<lePetitSarcasm> it not possible module not updated since 2001 not pass all test, sacre bleu </lePetitSarcasm>

It appears you're ahead of the game, you got the module to compile

I say try the examples, and if they do what they say they're doing , go ahead and install, and run with it

Re^4: install gimp, gimp::fu (libgimpui-2.0-0.dll missing)
by Anonymous Monk on Jan 17, 2020 at 01:17 UTC

    I was launching gimp from a perl script (batch file) and it was complaining about missing libgimpui-2.0-0.dll

    The problem was %userprofile% was set to a shortpath, and this old version of gimp.exe didn't like it

    Solution was reset USERPROFILE=%homedrive%%HOMEPATH%
