I am using gimp 2.2.9 on Linux, Fedora Core2 and have
Filters->Noise->Ditherize. It is a perl script. I see in the perl gimp
file, Gimp-2.0/examples/ditherize.
The perl plugin (and the GAP, gimp animation package) are separate.
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/plug-ins/v2.2/perl/
has a beta (pre-release) version, Gimp-2.2pre1.tar.gz.
I am using the file
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/plug-ins/v2.0/perl/Gimp-2.0.tar.gz
Some of the modules require that the perl PDL module be installed
(that is a math module for handling, among other things, large arrays of
numbers and what is a bitmap image but a large array of numbers?).

Well ... ditherize if you install the perl plugin ...
You may find other things (the last item which appeared to be missing but is
apparently in the perl Gimp plugin and was mentioned here was "Center
Layer") which appear to be missing without the perl plugin.
