I'm not sure I understand that comment.

Nor am I sure just what I have installed (Ubuntu 12.04/GIMP 2.8.6)!

I definitely installed http://registry.gimp.org/node/15118 recently. I
can't recall if I also had to install Resynthesiser, or, if I did, what
version.

Anyway, Help|Plug-in Browser tells me:

Resynthesize (plug-in-resynthesizer)
...

and...

Heal selection (script-fu-smart-remove)
...

Heal selection certainly works for me.

So what does that all mean?
