Install GIMP 2.8 on Ubuntu 12.04
By Leo Gaggl
Since the latest version of GIMP has not been included in the main 12.04 repositories because it was not ready at release time you have to use a PPA at current.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:otto-kesselgulasch/gimp<br></br>sudo apt-get update<br></br>sudo apt-get install gimp
TIP: Go to the “Windows” menu and select ‘Single-Window Mode’ to use Gimp in one window (see screenshot).
