MS Store assets generation is extremely slow
Environment/Versions
- GIMP version: 2.99.19
- Package: CI native
- Operating System: Windows 10 and 11
Description of the bug
After the introduction of gimp_exe_depends
, the Store assets (icons, tiles, xcf) generation in native builds become slow in a manner that can take from 1 minute to 10 minutes per asset to be built, which is too slow. Before (while the !1154 (merged) was being developed), no more than 10s were spent per asset.
This somewhat affects the Inno dist too since it depends on the same bundles generated in previous gimp-win-* jobs.
Reproduction
Is the bug reproducible? Always
Reproduction steps:
- Trigger custom win build (e.g. GIMP_CI_MSYS2_WIN_AARCH64)
- Or do local build with
-Dms-store=true
option - Observes in real time the end of the build (assets generation)
…
Expected result: assets are generated relatively fast
Actual result: assets take ages to be generated
