Exif Viewer
September 1, 2008 - 17:36 — weskaggs
This is an Exif Viewer, mainly for jpeg photos taken with a digital camera. It is an update of the "Exif Browser" plugin from the old registry. It requires a recent version of libexif (tested with 0.6.16).
Instructions for Linux:
You need to have gimp already installed on your system. After downloading the file exif-browser.tar.gz, do the following steps.
- gunzip exif-browser.tar.gz
- tar xcf exif-browser.tar
- cd exif-browser
- ./configure
- make
- sudo make install
The next time you run gimp, you should see an entry "View Exif" in the File menu.

Confused
What on earth does this all mean? I just use GIMP. There is an apparent assumption that I know a lot more than I do.....

Windows?
the assumption was the OS: Linux
If you use Windows just get the plugin ready to work

Linux distro compile
He's giving you the command line instructions for compiling the exif-browser using a Linux machine.
1 and 2 are basic unzip and tar actions.
3. is moving the command line to the directory where the zip is downloaded on your computer.
4. is the configure command for establishing a makefile.
5. is the command for compiling the makefile.
6. installing the makefile (which usually creates a plug-in and leaves it in the src folder). Depending on the source code, some plug-ins are installed directly into designated folders.
For most Linux users, these instructions are typical. To a Windows user, it won't mean anything at all.

Help~
pkg-config is able to find
pkg-config is able to find libexif, but not libgimp and libgimpui. Do you have the developer packagers for GIMP installed?
Idk...?
I uhh, actually don't know. Would you mind giving me the package names so I can check? gimp-dev, gimpui-dev, or what...?
gimp packages for compiling
I just installed the gimp-devel and gimp-devel-tools packages on my Fedora 13 machine using yumex. After that it would compile. and installed ok. Otherwise the packages can also be found at rpmfind.net.
I'm not familiar with the
I'm not familiar with the naming conventions for Fedora, but a safe guess is that searching for "gimp" plus "dev" in a package manager will list the required packages regardless of the distro you're using.
