Now many gimp plugins are being packaged, and some other packages may include gimp plugin as well, some packagers install plugins to wrong place so I hope you can add a macro %_gimp_plugindir: %global gimpplugindir %(gimptool --gimpplugindir)/plug-ins install -pd %{buildroot}%{_rpmconfigdir}/macros.d cat >> %{buildroot}%{_rpmconfigdir}/macros.d/macros.gimp << EOF # GIMP Macros %%_gimp_plugindir %{gimpplugindir} EOF %{_rpmconfigdir}/macros.d/macros.gimp And put the macro into devel. Thanks.
This is a good idea, but I'll have to tweak it a bit: - I don't want to rely on gimptool to build gimp, this makes bootstrapping hard. I guess I'll just have to leave things hard-coded in gimp. - The macro file needs to work on multi-lib, i.e. not contain hard-coded paths but use appropriate macros.
I've built gimp-2.8.10-5.fc21 which contains this /usr/lib/rpm/macros.d/macros.gimp file: --- 8< -------------------------------------- # RPM macros for GIMP %_gimp_datadir %{_datadir}/gimp/2.0 %_gimp_libdir %{_libdir}/gimp/2.0 %_gimp_sysconfdir %{_sysconfdir}/gimp/2.0 %_gimp_localedir %{_datadir}/locale %_gimp_scriptdir %{_datadir}/gimp/2.0/scripts %_gimp_plugindir %{_libdir}/gimp/2.0/plug-ins --- >8 -------------------------------------- I've committed this change into the F-19, F-20 dist-git branches, therefore future updates (once they happen) in the stable releases will get this as well.
Thanks, your help is much appreciated.
