Support for MacOS Ventura

Open johanvh83 opened this issue 2 years ago • 8 comments

Hi I was looking for file batch support in GIMP 2.10 and came across with your plugin. I've downloaded the tar.gz file for MacOS and read your Readme file. MacOS Ventura 13 is not supported yet, but I tried anyway to install your plugin. After double clicking the install script, I get an error: 'The app Terminal cannot be opened. -128'. I can only confirm by OK to close the error pop-up. I tried to open 'Terminal' and the app starts without any problem. Any chance to try your plugin on Ventura by installing another way or is it because it's not compatible?

Thanks in advance for your reply!

I am trying to get BIMP working in Ventura as well. When you get that error you go to System Settings/Privacy and security. Then scroll down to the Security section and you should see where you can allow the install script anyway. I had to do this for both the install script and the bimp executable. Then when you relaunch GIMP it will give you the option to allow the script. HOWEVER... Even after this I don't see the plugin available in GIMP even though its in the plug-in folder. This is where I am stuck. Post an update if you get it working

Hi, thanks for your recommandation. I was able to install the plugin. Had also to allow twice your plugin. I checked the plugin explorer but had no result when searching for 'bimp'. Anyway in the tab 'files' I have 'batch image manipulation' so I checked the functionality. The plugin works fine, I checked by selecting a folder with many pictures and rescaled them and saved them in another folder. Works great! I use Ventura 13.2 and may conclude and confirm that your plugin works without any problem.

Many thanks!

I also am stuck at the point where I can follow the Privacy and Security steps but it still does not show in the file dropdown menu.

Install completes but still no plug-in. Ventura 13.3.1, GIMP 2.10.34 and BIMP 2.6 Any suggestions?

Successfully installed, and allowed in System Settings -> Privacy & Security on Ventura 13.3.1. Not showing in File menu or Plug-in Browser. Any chance of this being updated for Ventura?

Many plugins have been broken by GIMP's 2.10.34 new building system. It seems to be generating broken paths for the GIMP.app lib folder. This way many dynamic libraries are not found, and it causes the plug-ins that rely on them to fail.

Here's what I did to workaround the problem:

  1. Moved the GIMP.app to the /Applications folder (it was in a subfolder before)
  2. Renamed GIMP.app to GIMP-2.10.app
  3. Opened a terminal and typed the following commands:
cd /Applications/GIMP-2.10.app/Contents/Resources/lib
mkdir lib
cd lib
ln -s ../* .

A good soul could please open a bug report for this on the GIMP gitlab page?
