Gimp-print mainline

I'm getting ready for a 4.3.9 release. This release offers a lot of new functionality in the GIMP plugin that really needs to be played with to understand (in particular, all the curves you could want).

Tyler, can you take a crack at building an OS X package for this? The emphasis is completely different from the 4.2 releases; 4.3.9 offers nothing new of interest for general purpose printing from CUPS. The idea here is to build a package with a GIMP plugin that can be used with the OS X GIMP port, so that all of the color hackers can get their toys to play with.

what exactly do you mean when you speak of "the OS X GIMP port" ?

Salut, Sven

The Fink package.

The Fink package.

We usually try to avoid to use terms as "the Win32 GIMP port" or "the OS X GIMP port" since GIMP is multi-platform and there are no ports to other operating systems. Everything is built from the same source (well, of course there is a tiny bit of platform-dependant code). If it turns out that any changes need to be made in order to build The GIMP on a particular platform, this change should be folded back into the GIMP source and should if possible not be maintained outside the main source tree.

I'd appreciate if you would try to respect this arrangement in public correspondance since it has already caused some misunderstandings in the past.

Salut, Sven

Fair enough. That wasn't my intention; "package" would indeed be a more accurate description.

Isn't it the terms "version" or "project" that should be avoided, not "port"?
