Python 3 support.

Hi developers,

I would like to ask, how is it with Python 3 support in gimp-2.8 and gimp-2.9? Is it supported or is required Python 2 only.

Best regards,

Python 3 support.

Hi -

It is currently Python 2 only - as GIMP 2.10 is using gtk2.0, and there are no working bindings from Python 3 to classic gtk 2 (non gobject introspection), and man time shortage in this area, GIMP won't be upgrading it for the launch of GIMP 2.10. Also, there is the need of avoiding breaking compatibility with plug-ins taht work on GIMP 2.x versions, including Python plug-ins.

If we can gather some enthusiasts we could start a work on Python 3 + gobject introspection and
Python 3 in the tree, that possibly could work as a standalone plug-in for GIMP 2.10 (and be ready
for GIMP 2.12 - 3.0)
