I can not get RawTherapee to work as well, here is the output from the console -

RawTherapee241]$ ./rt

(process:16325): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
    Using the fallback 'C' locale.

(rt:16325): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'gtk-find' for stock: Fatal error reading PNG image file: Incompatible libpng version in application and library

Re: help - cant get rawtherapee to work

The Raw Therapee site says "For the linux version: gtk+ 2.12, gtkmm 2.14 series required"

Pacman says gtk-1.2.10-10 is up to date  and gtkmm-2.18.2-1 is up to date

I followed the Arch install intructions carefully and my Locales were set, I reset them with -

$ sudo locale-gen
Generating locales...
  en_AU.UTF-8... done
  en_AU.ISO-8859-1... done
  en_US.UTF-8... done
  en_US.ISO-8859-1... done
Generation complete.

but still get the following

RawTherapee241]$ ./rt

(process:19937): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
    Using the fallback 'C' locale.

(rt:19937): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'gtk-find' for stock: Fatal error reading PNG image file: Incompatible libpng version in application and library

(rt:19937): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'gtk-find' for stock: Fatal error reading PNG image file: Incompatible libpng version in application and library
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Gdk::PixbufError'
Aborted

Pacman says libpng-1.4.1-1 is up to date

Can anyone please help, I wish to use Arch as a powerful photo editor platform.

Re: help - cant get rawtherapee to work

You could try rolling your libpng back to the previous one. The devs for that project may be a step behind the libpng devs.

That may cause more than a few issues for other software though, so be careful.

Am I the only one who sees the problem here? Their site says it requires gtk2 but you quoted a gtk1 version... Do you have gtk2 installed?

Re: help - cant get rawtherapee to work

Same probleme here, on Arch 64, I only get

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Gdk::PixbufError'

(The others errors you got are on only warnings, it should work even with those errors; the last one however is deadly)

gtk2 = 2.20, gtkmm = 2.20, so it seems not be these dependencies that the problem comes from. Downgrading lipng and lib32-libpng, as was proposed in the rawtherapee thread, did not solve the problem.

I'd like to be of help, but can't find what to do to get more info...

Re: help - cant get rawtherapee to work

I got it to work by simply reinstalling. I hope it helps, however I don't know what was wrong...
