'Heal Selection' Missing from Gimp on Ubuntu 20.04
#5
********************
Before you go any further. This will not work with Ubuntu 22.04 - too many dependency problems
If you have installed a ubuntu 22.04 LTS or a spin-off kubuntu / Mint ... Then installing the old python packages is a problem. Before trying the deb packages there is a gimp-python appimage, which is worth a try.

see: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Python...-and-Focal
and
https://github.com/TasMania17/Gimp-Appim...-for-Linux
**********************


Plenty of dpkg fails and broken packages presumably from previous tinkering, took a bit of fixing. I did install the gmic package only on the basis it pulls in a raft of dependencies.

Gimp python is there and working. Tried out resynthesizer / heal-selection. Gimp gmic is the old 2.4.5 version but the 'buster' gimp_gmic_qt (curently 2.9) from http://www.gmic.eu  supercedes it and works.

All in a kubuntu 20.04 VM  

Thanks again.
--------------------
Edit: I had the otto...ppa enabled in the repo list which caused problems.  Got rid of that and then in a clean but updated (k)ubuntu 20.04

A recap.

Installed Gimp 2.10.18 (and gave it a run to check it - no python)
Code:
sudo apt install gimp

Installed python 2.7
Code:
sudo apt install python2.7
sudo apt install python-is-python2


Then pulled in those python packages
Code:
sudo apt install python python-cairo python-gobject-2

Downloaded the gimp-python packages
Code:
xxxxxx-http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/pygtk/python-gtk2_2.24.0-6_amd64.deb-xxxxx
xxxxxx-http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gimp/gimp-python_2.10.8-2_amd64.deb-xxxxx

edit: These seem to have gone so, attached in the zip file.

Installed them
Code:
sudo dpkg -i *.deb

and that worked fine.

For gimp_gmic_qt the zip from http://www.gmic.eu unzipped and in the user profile plug-ins folder worked but this is a kubuntu and the QT packages are already installed. Regular ubuntu users need to check and install.
