Installed (I suppose) but not working, missing installation of engine plugin plug-in-resynthesizer

[CharlesTrois]

I get the same interface as Gimp 2.x, but ...
Plug-in 'Heal Selection' left image undo in inconsistent state, closing open undo groups.

(Gimp 2.03, Manjaro Linux)

[bootchk]

The installation is faulty.

The messages means the file: ~/.config/GIMP/2.0/plug-ins/plug-in-resynthesizer does not exist (loosely speaking.)

That file is a separate plugin from the other plugins. It is a binary file. The others are text files (.py or .scm)

Can you please clarify
1. which version of GIMP and resynthesizer you are using
2. how you installed the resynthesizer? Did you build it yourself or download it?

(Above it says you are using GIMP 2.03, which is a version I don't recognize.)

[CharlesTrois]

Excuse me, I use Gimp 3.03 (three - dot - 03 ...

[bootchk]

FYI, GIMP uses what is called "semantic versioning" which means the version is in form X.Y.Z.
X is major version (3) Y is minor version (0) and Z is patch version (3).
The even patch versions such as 3.0.4 are official releases,
and the odd patch versions such as 3.0.3 are nightly builds of ongoing development.

So I think you mean 3.0.3 and I understand what you mean.

I just released a new version of the Resynthesizer 3.0.0.

Please try it (either build it yourself) or wait for a Manjaro build.
But I really think the problem is in the installation somehow.
Please tell how you installed resynthesizer, either built yourself, or installed a Manjaro package?

[CharlesTrois]

Hello, and thanks for the reply! It was indeed Gimp 3.0.3 and my problems were due to a “home-made” compilation of resynthetiser. My computer knowledge is what it is (and so are the instructions for compiling resynth ;). But I finally got it right and resynth works for me. Thank you!!!

would you be so kind, and upload the files?

[CharlesTrois]

Ok, but which files?

[mmjoshi]

Ok, but which files?

I believe there are 4 files that are required.

resynthesizer.exe which goes in the folder plugins\resynthesizer

plugin-heal-selection.scm
plugin-heal-transparency.scm
plugin-resynth-controls.scm

The last 3 files go in scripts folder.

Would appreciate if you can upload these files or point a location from where they can be downloaded.

I have the same problem. I built the plugin on macOS (It just needed some love with the dependencies and include paths) and this is what I get from meson install:

(I installed into /opt/gimp and told Gimp to look there for plugins.)

I suspect this line is problematic:

Installing enginePlugin/resynthesizer to /opt/gimp/3.0/plug-ins/resynthesizer

Here's what's installed:

$ find /opt/gimp/3.0/plug-ins/
/opt/gimp/3.0/plug-ins/
/opt/gimp/3.0/plug-ins/resynthesizer

/opt/gimp/3.0/plug-ins/plug-in-resynth-fill-pattern/plug-in-resynth-fill-pattern.scm

There's no sign of plug-in-resynthesizer anywhere in there, so it looks like a problem with the meson scripts?

I am still confused! Sorry. Could you tell me where I can find these files? I am on Windows 11 if that's important.

[brainy]

I solved the problem on macOS, it was a shared library conflict. See PR 159.

It makes me confused a long time until I put the files into puligin/resynthesizer not plugin .
