Re: [Gimp-user] Opening uncompressed NASA image files in GIMP



Tried chmod 777 ../pds-2.4.116
Mod didn’t change. I appear to be the owner.

Hey Kein,

I cd’d to the /Users/rickkline/Downloads/pds-2.4.116 directory created by double clicking on 
pds-2.4.116.tar.gz in Downloads. Read INSTALL in the pds-2.4.116 directory and based on that issued the 
terminal command ./configure. Got an error message:

configure: error: in `/Users/rickkline/Downloads/pds-2.4.116':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

Do I need to chmod to something other than what access is currently set to?

ls -l results in -rw-r--r--@ 1 rickkline  staff  179736 Dec  2 23:12 ../pds-2.4.116.tar.gz

I imagine there should be an x in there somewhere.

Thanks.
Rick

ok, ty. That explains why I was seeing what looked like a honeycomb in part of the image.

Thanks for the info. I’ll try to get a working plugin now that I’ve found the plugin directory at
rickkline/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins

FYI, I downloaded the PDS plug-in source code from:
  http://areo.info/gimp/gimp-2.8/pds-2.4.116.tar.gz

I tried to build it for use with the 2.99 (development) version of GIMP. There were errors in the pds.c 
file which lead me to believe the way that plug-ins tie in to GIMP has changed. I don't have time right 
now to work out what changes are required to fix the compile errors.

Do I need to use the cp command or can I copy it in Finder?

That's a question for a Mac user.
