[Gimp-developer] Problem with tiff export from rawtherapee (4.1.80x64) to gimp (2.8.14(v.1)x64)

[Asmodis <asmodis94 web de>]

Hello

First of all: I don't really know if the following problem is a problem 
with gimp, Raw therapee or even Windows. So before creating a new 
bug-report, I wanted to ask you for some information about this - maybe 
someone here can tell me more.  :)

And this is my problem:
When I try to use RawTherapee's export-function in order to edit my 
images in gimp, the image won't load properly inside gimp.  Instead I 
get the following error messages while gimp starts up (roughly 
translated from german to english):

--------------------------- script-fu.exe - Entry point not found 
---------------------------
 The entry point "g_list_free_full" was not found in DLL "C:\Program 
Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins\script-fu.exe".
---------------------------

--------------------------- file-tiff-load.exe - Entry point not found 
---------------------------
The entry point "gdk_win32_window_foreign_new_for_display" was not found 
in DLL "C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\bin\libgimpui-2.0-0.dll".
 ---------------------------

And when gimp is finally loaded, I get the following errors:
------------------------------------
Plug-in crashed: "file-tiff-load.exe" (C:\Program Files\GIMP 
2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins\file-tiff-load.exe)
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.
Opening 'C:\Users\Simon\AppData\Local\Temp\_MG_5569.tif' failed: 
Procedure 'file-tiff-load' returned no return values
----------------------------------

Which seems to be related to the first messages: gimp can't load 
file-tiff-load.exe on startup, so the tiff-import won't work.

I did some research on this Problem (unsing Process Monitor) and the 
result was the following:

By starting gimp from RawTherapee, the dll-search includes RT's 
directory. And since RT is also based on gtk, etc. there are some dlls 
which have the same name as gimps own dlls, but in another version. The 
following is an example for gimp/file-tiff-dll.exe searching for gimp's 
libgimpwidgets-2.0-0.dll. As you can see, RT's directory is searched, 
before gimp's own directory and this is where the bad things happen (not 
in this case but I think you can see, what the problem is).

The following is an example for a dll (libglib-2.0-0.dll), which also 
exists in RT's folder - as you can see, gimp finds RT's dll, before it 
finds its own and therefore uses the wrong one.

As I already mentioned before, I don't really know if this can even be 
fixed within gimp's source or whether it has to be fixed somewhere else, 
so some feedback would be nice.

With respect,
