[SOLVED] CLD 18: GIMP does'nt show G'MIC plugin

Bourbon · 10-10-2018, 01:58 AM

Hi All,

On fresh installation of CLD 18 I have been installing G'Mic plugin for the wonderful GIMP; apparently correct install process but I don't see G'Mic on GIMP (2.10 coming with CLD).
Please, do someone know how to solve this small problem?

is gimp 2.10.6 installed ?
or is this a OLD gimp 2.8 install?

the current gmic plugin is for gimp 2.10.6

Hi John,

Thank you for your kind concern, is gimp 2.10 the one coming already installed on CLD 18 and gmic plugin is the one coming out looking for it with "eix".
You can see details on pastebin link. I am not using CLD now because another annoying problem came out: switching on the computer the following day Plasma is locked and I don't have solved it yet, also asking help on the official CLD forum no answer till now, here:
