gimp-app 2.6.0_1 openDoc failure — at Initial Version

Description

apologies if this is a duplicate ticket; I'm not sure if I submitted or just previewed it and then closed the tab a few minutes ago.

2 problems with opening files using Gimp.app

1) gimp2 no longer builds gimp-remote by default. already submitted a bug about that:

https://trac.macports.org/ticket/18473

2) on Leopard, with xquartz 2.3.2 (and I suspect also Apple's X11), the DISPLAY variable trick in Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/openDoc no longer works; in fact, it prevents openDoc from working at all.

Changing it to something like this:

#!/bin/sh # # Author: Aaron Voisine <aaron@…>

DISPFILE=/tmp/display.$UID if [ -e $DISPFILE ] then

export "DISPLAY=cat $DISPFILE"

fi exec "/opt/local/bin/gimp-remote" "$@"

makes it work on Leopard (which doesn't set /tmp/display.nnnn), and I imagine it would still work on older versions of OS X which do use /tmp/display.nnn

This could be seen as an upstream bug but honestly I could not figure out how to do submit a bug from the website at http://gimp-app.sourceforge.net/ .
