Use 2.99.12 in Ubuntu 22.04 - meetdilip - 08-31-2022

Is there any method to use the recently released dev version GIMPĀ 2.99.12 in Ubuntu 22.04?

Something like an AppImage? Thanks.

Nothing as convenient as an appimage. You could try a flatpak installation.
see: https://www.gimp.org/downloads/devel/

This using a Mint21 (equivalent to ubuntu22) Ubuntu is into snap packages, not sure if there is a Gimp 2.99.12 but for a flatpak

Code:
flatpak install --user https://flathub.org/beta-repo/appstream/org.gimp.GIMP.flatpakref

...and follow the prompts

Checking the installation and starting Gimp

Must be the ugliest interface ever, I do not know what planet the developers are on.

Thanks. I am pretty much sure that my Ubuntu does not support Flatpack. I think I need to add it somehow.
