It seems that my account on the openSUSE Build Service, which I used
to automatically build all the packages for various Linux
distributions, was tied to my account at Novell, and since I don't
work there anymore, both are gone.
Despite my promise to abandon MathMap I think working Linux packages
should be available, so if any volunteers are up for this job it'd be
much appreciated. No programming knowledge is needed, just a bit of
know-how regarding packaging, git, and the willingness to fiddle
around with the openSUSE Build Service:
I would like to work on this. I have packaged many source files to deb
formats using Ubuntu based build essentials(autoconf automake
autotools-dev dh-make debhelper devscripts fakeroot xutils lintian
pbuilder) but have no experience with Open-suse build service, However
I can teach myself on this new build service build service.

Awesome!
I suggest you get an OBS account right away and start with MathMap from git:
I guess going with 1.3.5 (tag v1.3.5) would be best. The only changes since then were a new curve widget, anyway. To get the .tar.gz to upload to the build service you'll need to do "make dist". That step includes an invocation of chpp (http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/schani/chpp/index.html), but the only thing that it does is replace the string "\version" with the proper version number in the .spec file. I suggest either replacing that with sed (or something similar) or just doing it by hand - you don't want to build chpp just for this.
I've uploaded the mathmap project directory from my former OBS account here, in case you need a reference for which files to put in and how to name them:
Hey Solancer, any news? Is there anyone trying to bring mathmap back to Linux? I'm just a end-user, so I suppose it's not simple to do that, but I really see the need of bringing this plugin "back to life", now that we have Gimp 2.8. So, any plans? :(

There's two things involved here:
1. Bringing MathMap packaging back to life - that's how this thread
started. Currently Lynn (CCed) is working on this, or has at least
expressed interest in working on this. Please coordinate if you'd
like to help.
2. Updating MathMap for GIMP 2.8. Some APIs might have changed, so
MathMap might not compile or work with 2.8 anymore. I have not
checked. If anybody knows, please let me know and I'll take a look
and see what the issues are and, if they're simple enough, I'll fix
them.

Ok, I understand. Thanks anyway and good luck with your mission! I'm waiting for this because I'd like to make a tutorial on portuguese to put on my blog for who are interested on starting with gimp.

On windows there are warning but not error i am currently using MM with no problem with gimp 2.8 from its release, and i used for long with the 2.7 beta Only to make it work i had to use some old gimp dll ,removed after 2.6 (that should not be hard to fix for all OS, just remapping the dependency to the newer version of the dll)
The bigger problem i had that i could not make a new build ,neither i found anybody able to build on Windows, so i had to adapt the last available build (maybe you can send me the mail of Commodor Guff that provided the last win build ? he may be able to give some tip to solve the compiling issue)
Anyway if could work well in Windows on gimp 2.8 (and it does ,other may confirm) should be, in theory, the same for all OS

PS about my previous message, obviously for linux read " Libraries " where i wrote dll
I suppose you looked to the code, i searched hard but i could not find the line where is defined and hardcoded the preview size maybe you noticed, and in case you can point me the exact file and line where is the hardcoded preview size ?
a nice improvement would be make the preview resizable and zoomable as for most of the other gimp plugin, alas that is far beyond my skill But at list if i found the right line i could enlarge to a more reasonable size

MathMap includes a README.windows-dev file which gives an overview of
all the steps I had to go through to compile MathMap for Windows:

MathMap has a resizable preview since 5 years ago:
Mark thank for pointing to the doc on building on windows
About the resizable preview should be a bug in the windows version because its size remain fixed at 384X384 Even if i use also Ubuntu (more seldom) i did not noticethe difference but i suppose because supposing was the same so i did not try to resize

note that is based on gimp 2.8, i plan to update soon for 2.8.
IMPORTANT to start click or create a shortcut for " _Start_Gimp_Friendly.bat" (or equivalent for the other languages
the other options "Demarrer_Gimp.bat" (and equivalent for other languages) start gimp loading a different configuration:
without any extra, so without mathmap
(and yes gimp 2.8 at 64 bit may use also 32bit plugins if placede in the right place)
please if you need more info visit the news or the filter board of www.gimpchat.com, i may miss your replies here
