How to install this plugin when GIMP is installed as a Flatpak

Open johnblommers opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

The installation instructions provided don't work because there is no directory

~/.local/share/gegl-0.4

That's where I'd expect GIMP to operate out of if it was installed from an APT repository. Alas I have GIMP installed via Flatpak and I have no idea where to install Layer-Effects-in-Gimp-using-GEGL compiled files.

Can you expand the installation procedure to encompass Flatpak as well? Or perhaps consider shipping your plugin via Flatpak - better yet.

It does work with flatpak. Put it here

/home/USERNAME/.var/app/org.gimp.GIMP/data/gegl-0.4/plug-ins

Yes that works perfectly. I have the plugin working here.
