[SOLVED] gimp-cce-git can be built, but it hangs when I execute it.

gimp-cce is a variant of gimp that fixes lots of ICC color management issues.

Initially, I wrote the following PKGBUILD according to the instructions on http://ninedegreesbelow.com/photography … tists.html

Basically, it just builds babl, gegl, libmypaint, and gimp-cce into $srcdir/build and exits before packaging starts.
After building it, if I executed $srcdir/build/usr/gimp-cce/bin/gimp-2.9, gimp-cce would execute and work without errors.

But, if I moved the build out of $srcdir/build, everything failed. Thus, I had to split it into 4 AUR packages.
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/ … bl-cce-git
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/ … gl-cce-git
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/ … nt-cce-git
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/ … mp-cce-git

Those 4 packages can be built somehow, but when I execute /usr/bin/gimp-cce, I only see a blank dialog named "GIMP User Installation".
GIMP hangs with that dialog forever, and the GIMP process occupies 100% of a CPU core until I kill it.

Why does GIMP-CCE work without a problem if everything is built in one PKGBUILD and fail miserably if it was built in 4 PKGBUILD files?
Can anyone help debug this issue? I tried troubleshooting this issue for 3 days, and I just don't know what is wrong.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Re: [SOLVED] gimp-cce-git can be built, but it hangs when I execute it.

Looks like those build instructions are meant for building/installing and running as user , not for a systemwide installation .

AUR has babl-git, gegl-git and libmypaint-git packages, maybe you can use those?

Then you only need to write the gimp-cce-git package and can use the official gimp package as a starting point.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

(A works at time B)  && (time C > time B ) ≠  (A works at time C)

Those build instructions aren't especialy meant for installing and running as a user. Elle stone merely doesn't want to deal with packaging systems.
Thus, it is more appropriate to say that the build instructions aren't tested with any packaging system.

babl-git and gegl-git aren't compatible with gimp-cce because gimp-cce relies on modifications elle stone made in babl and gegl.
She maintains https://github.com/ellelstone/babl and https://github.com/ellelstone/gegl

elle stone doesn't maintain a variant of libmypaint-git, but libmypaint-git is dependent on https://github.com/ellelstone/gegl.
Thus, I had to upload libmypaint-cce-git, too.

If you compare gimp-cce-git and gimp-git, there is not much difference other than different PREFIXes and some configure options.

Re: [SOLVED] gimp-cce-git can be built, but it hangs when I execute it.

When I executed /usr/gimp-cce/bin/gimp-console-2.9 without expecting much, I got the following terminal output.

This is a development version of GIMP.  Debug messages may appear here.

error: Cannot create folder '/usr/gimp-cce/config': Permission denied
Failed to parse tag cache: No such file or directory
GIMP-CCE-Error: Error opening file '/usr/gimp-cce/config/pluginrc': No such file or directory

Since /usr/gimp-cce/bin/gimp-2.9 didn't say error: Cannot create folder '/usr/gimp-cce/config': Permission denied, I was unaware of this issue.

I almost immediately recognized that /usr/gimp-cce/config was --with-gimpdir=$PREFIX/config from gimp-cce-git's PKGBUILD. After changing, --with-gimpdir=$PREFIX/config to --with-gimpdir=GIMP-CCE-GIT, everything seems to work, but I'll have to test further to dig up more issues.
