gimp-help-en: Couldn't find a GIMP-2.0 installation

[markus.doits@…]

Cannot install it @2.8.0, because it expects gimp2 to be installed:

:info:configure ** Couldn't find a GIMP-2.0 installation. If you want to skip this check and
:info:configure ** install the help files to the configured prefix, use the --without-gimp
:info:configure ** configure option. Note that GIMP will then only find the help files if it
:info:configure ** is installed in the same prefix. See the file 'INSTALL' for more help.

Maybe the fix is to add "--without-gimp"?

By the way, I added

configure.args    --without-gimp 

to the Portfile and was able to install.

I was able to install gimp-help-en without modifying any portfiles:

$ /usr/bin/sudo port -f uninstall gimp-help-en
$ /usr/bin/sudo port -s install gimp-help-en configure.args=--without-gimp

After that I could continue GIMP installation normally with

$ /usr/bin/sudo port install gimp

Apply this patch first:

#35285

Then the following commands should install gimp-help-en correctly.

$ /usr/bin/sudo port -f uninstall gimp-help-en
$ /usr/bin/sudo port -s install gimp-help-en configure.args=--without-gimp

However, gimp still won't install because of a problem with webkit-gtk. See #35348.

[markus.doits@…]

you don't need webkit if you install gimp2 without help_browser (-help_browser)
