Note: If you want to have both gimp-git and stock gimp installed, there's a non-conflicting version of this package called gimp-develop-git
This package is also hosted on GitHub.
Use env vars to control build process:
  • DISABLE_MESON=1 to build with Autotools build system (disabled by default)
  • MAKEFLAGS="xxx" to override default make flags.
Usage cases:
  • makepkg DISABLE_MESON=1
  • yay -S gimp-git --mflags "DISABLE_MESON=1"
Disclaimer: Package uses Travis to automatically update version of dependencies. Script executes once a day, so please wait a day before reporting dependencies version mismatch, thanks!

According to this bugreport - https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=764304#c6 - it would be a good idea to make this package not providing "gimp", but something like "gimp-2.99" to make it possible to install both branches in parallel. Quote: "Cool. Since you seem to be active there, can you tell them that the following is wrong: Conflicts: gimp Provides: gimp Replaces: gimp gimp-3.x is completely parallel installable with gimp-2.x, nothing conflicts, and it replaces nothing. It's a different thing with different names for binaries, folders, libraries, everything." I always wondered about the huge amount of "Required by"-Packages. Most of them don't even work with Gimp-2.99. Some modifications to the PKGBUILD would be necessary, but only for stuff like .desktop file and corresponding icons. I've made the changes manually here on my system and it works really well. I would gladly provide the changes, but I'm not really into making PKGBUILDs. Just as an example for a .desktop file: Gimp-2.99.desktop "[Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Type=Application Name=Gimp 2.99 Name[de]=Gimp 2.99 GenericName=Image Editor GenericName[de]=Bildeditor Comment=Create images and edit photographs Comment[de]=Bilder erstellen und Fotografien bearbeiten Exec=gimp-2.99 %U TryExec=gimp-2.99 Icon=gimp-2.99 Terminal=false Categories=Graphics;2DGraphics;RasterGraphics;GTK; X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Bugzilla=GNOME X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Product=GIMP X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Component=General X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Version=2.99.0 X-GNOME-Bugzilla-OtherBinaries=gimp-2.99 StartupNotify=true MimeType=image/bmp;image/g3fax;image/gif;image/x-fits;image/x-pcx;image/x-portable-anymap;image/x-portable-bitmap;image/x-portable-graymap;image/x-portable-pixmap;image/x-psd;image/x-sgi;image/x-tga;image/x-xbitmap;image/x-xwindowdump;image/x-xcf;image/x-compressed-xcf;image/x-gimp-gbr;image/x-gimp-pat;image/x-gimp-gih;image/tiff;image/jpeg;image/x-psp;application/postscript;image/png;image/x-icon;image/x-xpixmap;image/x-exr;image/svg+xml;image/x-wmf;image/jp2;image/jpeg2000;image/jpx;image/x-xcursor;"

I think it is a good idea, because it seems to be cleaner. And Michael Natterer is right: gimp and gimp-2.99 are two differnt and independent versions. Also, have a look in the "Required by"-Section above. There are 140 Packages depending on gimp. I really doubt that those are working well with gimp-2.99, most of them will not work at all. Try to install "gimp-plugin-dcamnoise2", you will see that it don't works with this package here. I don't think it is hard to make the changes to the PKGBUILD. By deleting the lines you've mentioned in your earlier comment, I got this one so far when trying to install gimp2: error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files) gimp: /usr/share/aclocal/gimp-2.0.m4 exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/appdata/gimp.appdata.xml exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/applications/gimp.desktop exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/22x22/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/24x24/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem Providing those files with the needed changes for your PKGBUILD isn't that hard. gimp.desktop could be easily changed and provided (testing that atm), the other files should also be no bigger problem.

Maybe it is possible, but is useful to have both version of gimp installed in the same time? I can't see the reason why to do it.

Not sure, I think he's talking about those lines in the PKGBUILD: replaces=('gimp') provides=('gimp') conflicts=('gimp') I'm not good with creating PKGBUILDs, but I guess something like this should make it possible to install the Gimp3-Branch parallel to the regular build from the repos: replaces=('gimp-2.99') provides=('gimp-2.99') conflicts=('gimp-2.99') Just an Idea, maybe someone else could give better infos about this. I will test it with those options. Edit: You're right. Tried to install gimp from the repos beside gimp-gtk3-git and got the following: error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files) gimp: /usr/bin/gimp exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/bin/gimp-console exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/aclocal/gimp-2.0.m4 exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/appdata/gimp.appdata.xml exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/applications/gimp.desktop exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/gimp/2.0/palettes/Linux.gpl exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/22x22/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/24x24/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem gimp: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/gimp.png exists in filesystem Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded. Seems as if some corrections to the package() section are needed. Just an Idea.

You mean this package? the last two rows in package function make this package incompatible with official gimp package ln -s gimp-2.99 ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/gimp ln -s gimp-console-2.99 ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/gimp-console Do you want me to remove them?

Information from Michael Natterer: "Cool. Since you seem to be active there, can you tell them that the following is wrong: Conflicts: gimp Provides: gimp Replaces: gimp gimp-3.x is completely parallel installable with gimp-2.x, nothing conflicts, and it replaces nothing. It's a different thing with different names for binaries, folders, libraries, everything." Sounds legit.

Thank you for reporting. Not being at my Arch box right now, I cannot test myself right now, but will take your feedback as a green light for the bugreport.

Works. Many thanks! :) Edit: The branch is rebased. Works again without the workaround.
