[Gimp / libjxl plugin] How to get the JPEG-XL plugin?
by Michael Uplawski from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5SNW2)
Good morning
I could install the libjxl library, build from the sources, as described here.
To get the Gimp plugin, I followed indications from here and here.
Gimp development files are installed.
Now I cannot believe that I am the person who detects that the source files of the plugin are faulty, because CMake reports missing lines and variables. In addition, I master neither CMake nor the clang-compiler.
My command to build the plugin was:
Code::/[libjxl sources]/plugins/gimp$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF -DJPEGXL_ENABLE_GIMP_SAVING=YES .which is certainly wrong, but all that I can come up with.
Does anyone know something?
I preferred to simply install the binary, but as Gimp3.x will include jpeg-xl support, might also just wait for that.
