Python2 was dropped in Ubuntu 20.04 but is still used by Gimp plug-ins and coders. These AppImages launch the system installed Gimp or the PPA installed Gimp and add Python2.7.18 and MathMap.
There is an Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy version and Ubuntu 20.04 Focal version of the AppImage.

Edit: There is an updated link with the appimage. The 22.04 Jammy version works with 20.04 Focal. No need for separate versions

A byproduct of the appimages is a minimal 'tree' collection of necessary Python2 files. This tree can be dropped-in to the system in /usr or added to appimages. I could make this into a deb file but at the moment like the idea of having it isolated from Python3 which is used by gmic.
