Portable Gimp 2.9.9 for linux

Hopefully sometime in this decade  the Software manager will be updated and I can try out layer group masks.

I installed Kubuntu 18.04 in a VM so I could try out the Gimp 2.10 from the ppa
https://launchpad.net/~otto-kesselgulasc...gimp-edge/

It uses muon package manager by default. Installed synaptic just to feel comfortable. Is it any better than synaptic? The blub says https://www.linux-apps.com/content/show....ent=137507

I agree with you there Smile

The requirements for compiling Gimp 2.9.9/10 from start of the year brought in some really recent package changes.

I had a try in Kubuntu 16.04 and quickly ran into problems. Apart from dependency issues, the way some of the packages now require compiling has changed. Some are still ok with .compile/make others use autogen or cmake or pip. It is a real mess.

I hope that someone will get a Gimp 2.10 up and running for 'buntu 16 / mint 18 versions but not holding out much hope. It is looking like a complete version update long before LTS end-of-life 2021. Might go back to a rolling distro like PClinuxOS.
