Trouble building Gimp from GIT repo
Hello, Everyone
This is on Fedora 27, all current updates installed.
I have obtained the source code for GIMP using the following command "git clone https://github.com/GNOME/gimp.git"
When I attempt to build GIMP using the following command: "./autogen.sh && ./configure --enable-gtk-doc --enable-gtk-doc-html --prefix=/usr/local/spu/assorted/g/gimp/gimp-$(xdate) && make"
the result is as follows:
- Error: missing dependency babl >= 0.1.42 - Error: missing dependency gegl-0.3 >= 0.3.29 - Error: missing dependency libmypaint >= 1.3.0 - Error: missing dependency mypaint-brushes-1.0
OK, the Fedora 27 versions of Babl & Gegl are too low. So I proceed to install them from their respective GIT repo's, to a location outside of the path that Fedora 27 installs in. I then put this location in my ~/.bash_profile and then GIMP correctly sees them, and those two missing dependencies go away...
I also have libmypaint installed from GIT. It's "libmypaint-2.0.pc" file says the following:
Version: 2.0.0
"rpm -qa | grep -i mypaint" says the following:
[steve@afolkey2 ~]$ rpm -qa | grep -i mypaint
mypaint-data-1.2.1-10.fc27.noarch
mypaint-1.2.1-10.fc27.x86_64
mypaint-devel-1.2.1-10.fc27.x86_64
So, "mypaint-data" (which contains the brushes that constitute
mypaint-brushes) is a good version.
My custom install of libmypaint is newer than required, but is not
detected as such by GIMP.
My custom installs of BABL and GEGL are both accepted versions, and they
ARE detected by GIMP.
If I run "./autogen.sh && ./configure --enable-gtk-doc
--enable-gtk-doc-html
--prefix=/usr/local/spu/assorted/g/gimp/gimp-$(xdate) && make" with all
of the variables for the above listed items set appropriately in
.bash_profile, the result is this:
Error: GIMP configuration failed.
- Error: missing dependency libmypaint >= 1.3.0 - Error: missing dependency mypaint-brushes-1.0
See the file 'INSTALL' for more help. make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
So, I THINK I have everything installed that GIMP requires, in the right versions, but still no success.
I will glady provide any additional information that you need.
Thank you, Steven P. Ulrick

I ran across the same problem with mypaint. After you clone the mypaint repo you need to checkout the 1.3 branch and built it. GIMP won't let you use the 2.0 version.

I have in my build directory a git repository for mypaint-brushes that was probably the solution to this problem.
It says
[remote origin]
url=https://github.com/Jehan/mypaint-brushes
etc.

Hello, Kevin
Are you referring to libmypaint? I know that I was unclear in my
original email. I just built and installed libmypaint-1.3.0 and GIMP is
happy with that... But, libmypaint does not appear to have the brushes
that are contained in mypaint.
This is the only error I am getting right now:
- Error: missing dependency mypaint-brushes-1.0
I have the appropriate RPM installed, and the brushes are located at "/usr/share/mypaint/brushes" but GIMP does not see them...
Thank you, Steven P. Ulrick

It is better to read the INSTALL file when you are building a software. :-) Or in the case of GIMP, If you build from git repository, then read INSTALL.in instead. Everything is explained.
As you note yourself, libmypaint do not contain MyPaint brushes, which is a problem. This is why mypaint-brushes is a separate package. It is available in https://github.com/Jehan/mypaint-brushes Install the branch v1.3.x and make sure that your PKG_CONFIG_PATH is well set (once again, everything is explained in details in INSTALL.in).
I have the appropriate RPM installed, and the brushes are located at "/usr/share/mypaint/brushes" but GIMP does not see them...
Yes these are installed with MyPaint, but this is a problem because:
(1) it makes MyPaint a defacto dependency to GIMP since we use libmypaint (which is useless without brushes). (2) there is no way to know where the brushes are but guessing. This is what we were doing previously trying various common places (/usr, /usr/local, etc.). But this is not an acceptable solution. We need to know where each of our dependencies are actually installed with certainty.
This is why we have a separate package which hopefully will be used also soon by every project using libmypaint out there (instead of duplicating these data everywhere! For instance, I read that it is what OpenToonz is doing: they just ship MyPaint brushes which is not a good idea).
