I used to use a flatpak and tried any number of ways to get my scanner working. Ended up keeping a Gimp 2.8 to use for the several plugins that flatpak fails to support.

Now using kubuntu 18.04 and moved on to the Gimp 2.10.12 from PPA otto-kesselgulasch/ubuntu/gimp
Whether Stettin can keep 'buntu Bionic updated for future versions of Gimp is another matter.

i used it before but i always got the following error:



so i upgrade the GEGL lib to required version, but nothing changed...i still get the same error
