The trick is to use and updated HDR file from the Debian repository and after that it is a standard install. I'm using version 22-1 on Jaunty Jackalope 64bit edition and let me tell you it flies! I work on 250MB TIFF images and is muscles through them effortlessly. Your work is much appreciated and cinepaint is a very useful tool! I'd be quite pleased at this point to see a provisional package for the current (jaunty) Ubuntu, even if it contains bugs and quirks just something that will install without dependency concerns. I keep a machine at home that is still running Ubuntu Edge - I've avoided upgrading it all this time, just because of not wanting to risk any trouble reinstalling Cinepaint. Cinepaint has been essential for my workflow with 16-bit grayscale film scans. Nice to hear the project still has life in it. I did think I'd get back to it much sooner than this. That made it more effort than I'd expected and put me off. One that's particularly annoying is all the windows lose their screen positions and pile on top of each other. When I did some testing I found fresh bugs in the CVS version. On the Linux side, I thought I was going to quickly wrap a release long ago so we can get back into Ubuntu and Debian. That's a bit more complicated than the script I wrote to do that on Ubuntu because every supporting lib must be downloaded and built from source on the Mac, not just the app. I want the Mac release fully automated so anyone can build it from a script. Because I'm spending more time on Mac OS X lately (using Final Cut Pro), that's where I'm focusing on CinePaint now. My focus recently has been on the build system, something that's always been a sore point with CinePaint. In case anyone is wondering, I'm still working on CinePaint when I can find free time. I've been working long hours and have had less time for free projects. Sorry I've been away from CinePaint for a while.
