Also, python scripts actually are plugins, and have to be in the plugins folder, not the scripts folder (cause script-fu/tiny-fu is actually a plugin... Confusing, I know)...

Question concerning Inkscape Install and Python
Hello, All.
I have a general question for you. I noticed when I installed Inkscape that Python files were installed as well.
Is there anything I need to be concerned with before installing the Python files needed for GIMP or are the Python files installed with Inkscape okay or, what?
Thanks.
Regards,
Gary
In the end you will see, you is you and me is me.

I did indeed restart after installing Python. The exact order I took was:Originally Posted by jfrazierjr
1) Uninstall GIMP
2) Download all the Python and GTK+ and Py-stuff
3) Install Python 2.5.4
4) Restart
5) Install GTK+
6) Install other Py-stuff
7) Make sure that shiny new scripts are all all in the script folder of GIMP
Reinstall (latest version of) GIMP [note: I had been running GIMP 2.4, upgraded to 2.6.5; I don't think I like that you can't minimize the tools and layers/palette windows anymore... sometimes I want to access my desktop, you know? I think I do like that it automatically opens a window for an image frame with all the menus centralized]
Ahh. Somewhere along the way I had gotten the impression that Python scripts belonged in the script folder along with script-fu scripts. I'll change them around tonight and check and see if that solves the problem, thanks!

Install all the other python stuff, reboot
Install GIMP and check the python option during the install.
I had trouble with this also, and originally blamed it on being Vista 64 bit after getting my new computer. For a few weeks, I was just bummed. I then went back to it and did several reboots between and got it working.

If RobA's suggestion doesn't work, I'll move on to trying the "reboot after each step" philosophy. Don't know if I'll have time to work on this tonight or not. Usually don't have time once I'm home with my wife, as either I have to study or spend time with her.
