Description Michael J Gruber 2024-04-16 10:43:12 UTC
Description of problem:
Python Gimp plugins are completely broken, this includes Gimp's python console.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gimp-2.10.36-2.fc40.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Gimp
2. Filters->Python-Fu->Console

Actual results:
GIMP Message box:
```
Plug-in crashed: "python-console.py"
(/usr/lib64/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/python-console/python-console.py)

The dying plug-in may have messed up GIMP's internal state. You may want to save your images and restart GIMP to be on the safe side.
```
Stderr:
```
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib64/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/python-console/python-console.py", line 19, in <module>
    from gimpfu import *
  File "/usr/lib64/gimp/2.0/python/gimpfu.py", line 76, in <module>
    import gimp
ImportError: could not import pygtk
```

Expected results:
Gimp's Python console starts

Additional info:
This affects all python plugins, including the ones shipped with Gimp such as Filters->Render->Spyrogimp, Filters->Decor-Fog etc

Gimp uses python2 and relies on the presence of some py2 bits to work. Gimp 3 will use python 3.

Hi! This is my fault, I reworked how dependencies are specified a while ago and inadvertently dropped the one on pygtk2, oops!

As a workaround until a fixed package is available, you can install it manually e.g. by running this command:

sudo dnf install pygtk2
