I've just installed gimp 2.10.6 on Kubuntu 18.04 from the ppa.launchpad.net/otto-kesselgulasch/gimp/ubuntu repository, but when I try to start it I get a pop-up with the following message:
GdkPixbuf version too old!
GIMP requires GdkPixbuf version 2.30.8 or later. Installed GdkPixbuf version is 2.30.7.
Somehow you or your software packager managed
to install GIMP with an older GdkPixbuf version.
Please upgrade to GdkPixbuf version 2.30.8 or later.
however, according to synaptic, the version of gdkpixbuf on my system is 2.36.11-2....
I tried starting it from a console, and the pop-up was preceded by the following message:
~$ gimp
Missing fast-path babl conversion detected, Implementing missing babl fast paths
accelerates GEGL, GIMP and other software using babl, warnings are printed on
first occurance of formats used where a conversion has to be synthesized
programmatically by babl based on format description

load error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gegl-0.4/pixbuf.so: undefined symbol: gdk_pixbuf_read_pixels
does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

I'm looking to make a spoof, as so many before me have done, of this image. How would I go about altering a photo/detailed illustration of a face such that it resembles the faces in this image?
I've tried various things with edge-detection but it always leads to an over-detailed image. I'm a bit of a newbie so I really don't know where to go from here....
Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

How do I add a color layer + put text on top |

I have an image.
I want to put another layer on top - say white or black.
On top of this layer, I want to put text.
What's the best way of doing this?
I thought it would be simple.
But I'm struggling.
I've started by created a new image. Then color the background. Then copy and past onto the image. And then add text on top.
I seem to be going wrong. I'm struggling to resize the layer or cut a bottom or top part off.
Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks.

Paintbrushing Eraser! |

Hello,
I've just downloaded Gimp 2.10.4 and the eraser acts like a paintbrush filling the image with colour.
I know there is a procedure for resolving this but I've forgotten it. Can someone please enlighten me,
Yours,
Anthony Halligan
