Maybe it related to #57 issue. I found a way to install resynthesizer on Ubuntu 18.04. By using files from the answer here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1072044/how-to-install-resynthesizer-plugin-in-gimp-snap But now I don't have heal selection filter, not sure about how to debug it. Thanks.

Guide for Ubuntu https://play.datalude.com/blog/2018/11/gimp-2-8-resynthesizer-plugin-ubuntu-18/

apt install gimp-plugin-registry   # works on Ubuntu 18.04
apt install gimp-python    # apparently works on 18.10 (with gimp 2.10)

Arrggh! See the note in the readme: "Installs to the shared Gimp directories. Except on Ubuntu, it installs to /usr/local/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins and you may need to set the GIMP Edit>Preferences>Folders>Plugins> to include that path." The build scripts don't attempt to undo what Canonical (Ubuntu) have decided to do differently (set local install directory prefix to a weird place, in the sense that it is not the standard) Maybe the Debian packagers (of gimp-plugin-registry package) have put things in the more normal place, and Ubuntu didn't futz with the Debian package to put things in the same place as the build scripts. I am loathe to change the build scripts just to accommodate the weirdness of Ubuntu. I could be wrong. Anyway, you see how complicated and tedious this all is, so many ways to distribute: Debian, Ubuntu, snap, flatpak, Windows, several OS X flavors, on and on.
