[Gimp-user] Adding Plugin frustration

[Carusoswi <forums gimpusers com>]

I want to add the Resynth plugin package to my Ubuntu 12.10 Gimp 2.8.
I've located and downloaded the plugin, extracted it, found two plugin folder
paths that show in the Gimp Preferences Folders box, placed copies of the plugin
files in each of those folders, but Resynth still does not show up in my Gimp
2.8.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
