eog-plugins don't shop up

I installed eog-plugins, but they do not show up in EOG Preferences >

Plugins.

Hi Roman,

Note that eog-plugins have the version 3.26.8, while EOG itself has

version 40.3 -- in other words, a mismatch. There is to my knowledge

no eog-plugins release for 40.3, but there are release candidates for

42. Apart from that, it would appear that the plugin installation path

changed from lib/ to share/, but we could add our own lib-respecting

plugin path to eog with a patch or snippet once we have corresponding

eog-plugins again.

Cheers

Hello, Liliana. Thank you for looking into this.

Indeed, the latest stable release of eog-plugins is 3.26.8 per

If this is of any help, I looked into Debian and Fedora installations.

Fedora uses eog-plugins version 3.26.8 with eog 41.1, and Debian uses

eog-plugins 3.26.5 with eog 3.38.2. The plugins seem to be installed to

/usr/lib64/eog/plugins on Fedora and to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-

gnu/eog/plugins on Debian. For your reference, I attach my lookup on

Fedora of where the map plugin installs its files and a look at the

plugins directory contents.

Hello, Roman and Liliana, thanks for the report and explain.

I have fixed this issue in commit b769fe7f756 by symlink the plugins

directory in eog-plugins from lib/ to share/.
