Gimp 2.5.0 Development DEB

[zeronet]

Well, a friend had some issues with his wacom tablet with Hardy GTK and Gimp 2.4, so I´ve compiled Gimp 2.5.0 myself and made a deb because I wanted to give it to another friends too. It doesn´t deletes Gimp 2.4, it´s a parallel setup on /opt/gimp-2.5.

This deb was tested only on Hardy Heron and Feisty Fawn (doesn´t works there because Cairo is too old), but it should work on Gutsy Gibbon.

I hope it could be useful for someone

Here´s the download link:

Thanks Gadi for the uploading and Olskar for testing it on Hardy.

the differt width of the panels make it look kinda sloppy

Could you perhaps upload it somewhere else? Mediafire doesnt like me..

I tried compiling this myself so that I could have a look at it but ran into problems.

Thanks for providing this package, I'll see if I can get it to work

[Edit] I'm having problems with Mediafire too. Any chance of uploading this elsewhere?

Well, my upload speed is very low, 64k/s so It´s impossible for me upload 30Mb onn uploading web services, but a friend is going to upload the package on rapidshare, I´ll add the link when it finishes, I made the same with the mediafire link, If someone could download it from mediafire, and upload it to another host, it would be great

They've solved the multiple window problem half-way. Only one icon is visible in the dock/taskbar (if you set it up properly), but if you minimize or move the main window, the other windows stays in their place.
I would like to see a dock/undock button in the main window to allow the user to easily switch between the traditional GIMP multi-window view and the more Photoshop-like single-window view.
The menus remind me a lot of GIMPshop.

so can we get a deb for 2.5.1?
