Plugins moved/ don't work - Turn2Linux - 05-30-2019

I've added the 'Wavelet Denoise' filter successfully to my 2.10.8 version (dropping it in '~/.config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins/') However, after updating to 2.10.10, the 2.10.8 version works as before, while the new one does not recognize the filter.

Did the plug-ins library place change?

Ant help in understanding this problem will be greatly appreciated.

Does that mean you have both versions installed? Is Gimp 2.10.10 a flatpack or a snap installation? (Edit: got to be otherwise the new installation would overwrite the old one)

If that is the case, check in Edit -> Preferences -> Folders -> plug-ins for the paths to the user plugin folder. It might not be ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins

I am using kubuntu 18.04 and Gimp 2.10.10 and wavelet-denoise from previous posts working ok here.

I do not know ubuntu budgie but the usual applies, open a terminal and run the appropriate gimp with the --verbose switch. Examine the output.

Thanks a bunch Rich2005,
I will check it. Due to a stupid ass thing I did (trying to format a 12TB usb-attached external HDD, i lost my installation, and had to install my Ubuntu Budgie again from scratch.
I did another stupid thing - I downloaded the plugin you sent me to a windows system -> usb -> my Linux. Of course it lost its executable properties, and did not work.
I downloaded it to the new installation, directly, and "Hey presto" - your plugin works a treat.

Thanks anyways - and sorry for the dumb-ass thing I do.
