Very much what you want to do. The snap will be ok for most purposes. It comes with python, so python plugins work. Simple compiled plugins should work providing they do not have any awkward dependencies. Your test.scm works installed in ~/snap/gimp/292/.config/GIMP/2.10/scripts and run from the menu.
One problem with 'buntu 20.04 is python support for Gimp 2.10 There is none without the user adding it. Details included in this thread https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Heal-S...4#pid18354
There is a Gimp 2.10.20 from a PPA https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/+...buntu/gimp Only English language at present. No python included by default, same as before to manually add it.
I have tried both of those in 'buntu and also Mint 20.04 VM's and I know they work.
About whereis, I do not have etc/gimp usr/share/gimp or usr/lib/gimp These are all installation folders for a regular Gimp. Are you sure you never had one installed? In my opinion it would be best to purge all old versions before installing another Gimp.
