Bug ID: 442783
Summary: Doesn't add a new resource type to the database if the

Screenshot of the database without the seexpr resource type entry
SUMMARY
I compiled kseexpr and installed it into Krita, and Krita's seexpr works, but
the resources don't show up. Text in the console:
"Adding to database failed, resource id after adding is -1 ! (Probable reason:
the resource has the same filename, storage, resource type as an existing
resource). Resource is: "Wolthera's_fractional_Brownian_Motion"
"Wolthera's_fractional_Brownian_Motion.kse" "seexpr_scripts"
"Krita_Artists_SeExpr_examples.bundle""
I believe the reason it cannot be added is because it cannot find an
appropriate id for the seexpr resource type, and that's because the seexpr
resource type is not available in the database at all.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Remove your resource folder.
2. Use Krita that doesn't have seexpr (which is an optional dependency). See
that there is no text on the console (because it considers the seexpr resources
just broken).
3. Use Krita with seexpr.
OBSERVED RESULT
No seexpr scripts in the seexpr dialog.
Warnings on the console about not being able to add seexpr scripts entries to
the database.
Seexpr script written by the user works (and actually, it even by default uses
the last script the user wrote or used, I think?).
EXPECTED RESULT
Seexpr scripts resources are available in the seexpr dialog.
NOTE
If we figure out how to handle it nicely, it should help us add further
resource types in the future. All of the new resource types will be in the same
situation, after all (already existing database without that type in the
resource_types table).
The easy solution for this particular bug would be to just always add the
seexpr entry even if Krita has no access to seexpr scripts, but maybe it could
be handled better and handle an existing database without that entry already
(and just add it).
