[PLASMA 5] GIMP splash screen

[Grahm]

I installed GIMP from the Discover store. I have a couple of issues now

1. Python plugins not working ( worked in Snap version )

2. No idea how to change the GIMP splash screen.

Any help will be great.

Fixed the GIMP splash screen issue as per this guide

https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/custom...ashscreen.html

Now on Python plugins,

Perhaps you wanna install python-is-python3 package or just make a symlink called python that will execute python3 if you place it in the /usr/bin directory.
sudo ln -s python3 python
and run...
sudo apt-get install gimp-data-extras gimp-plugin-registry

Thanks. May I know what change we are making. Because in the meantime I tried the AppImage option and used

GMIC-Gimp-2.10-linux.AppImage

ResynthesizerPlugin-Gimp-2.10-linux.AppImage

But none of the above is shown inside GIMP. Also, I tried Edit > Preferences and put ofn-erase-background in the plugins folder. Even that is nowhere to be seen inside GIMP.

When I have installed GIMP, I've always used this PPA for the latest version. Recently though, Krita is enough for my simple usage.

Thanks. I somehow made it to work.

Thank you so much for the link with the guide on how to change the screensaver. I have never found this guide anywhere before, and it is very simple!
