Hi Mitch,

yes, if there was an error, I would of cours have told you. But there 
was non. It simply wasn't there.
I'm running GIMP on the new Xubuntu 18.04 installed via flatpak.

The script I usually only copy into the folder "scripts" in local user. 
Following the link in GIMP 2.10 Bearbeiten - Einstellungen - Ordner - 
Scripts (sorry. german), I have to put the script into
 home/user/var/app/org.gimp.GIMP/cpmfog/GIMP/2.10/
The folder is empty, so I created the folder scripts and put a copy into 
the folder. Restarted GIMP, but the script is nowhere in any of the 
menus on GIMP neither in filter nor in animation.
So there were no errors.

I tried it with different locations for the folder, because you can put 
the path to the folder into GIMP setting. But nothing worked. The script 
used to run on GIMP 2.8.

Thanks
Anke
