From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Issue with GIMP scripts - Debian Trixie (lemmy.world)

Hi, all. I'm trying to use the logo creator scripts in GIMP under Debian Trixie. Standard apt install, using Debian sources, including gimp-data-extras, which is the package with the scripts. The packages are all up to date.

When I try to run any of the logo scripts, I get an error message like this:

Execution error for 'Alien Glow': Error: eval: unbound variable: gimp-text-fontname

I've done some searching, and the results all say things like, "Oh, your script is missing..." or something like that. But it's not my script, it's a standard script with GIMP. All of the logo scripts give this error, on two different computers (both with Debian Trixie).

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Ah that would do it. Disappointing. But thanks for the suggestions and finding that.

Yeah 3.0 on Trixie.

Sounds like that gimp-data-extras package shouldn't apply to 3.x. So maybe that's the fundamental problem.
