Hi everybody ! I´m Sandy, live in South Germany but my heart belongs to Vlaanderen and Syldavia

Excuse my bad English , I´m try to learn and understand Gimp, it´s really a great software !

I use Windows 10 64 bit and Linux Mint 20 Ulyssa, dualboot

Gimp 2.10.24 on Windows , Gimp 2.10.18 on Linux , I can´t install the 10.24 version on Linux and I don´t know why

I hoppe, I can realize lovely pictures before I´m 50 lol !

Have a nice day !

Welcome to GimpChat.

I run Linux Mint 20 and Gimp 2.10.24. There are two ways that I know of. I'm running the PPA version, but the AppImage version may be easier to use and no installation required.

AppImages: https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-appimage/releases

UbuntoHandBook PPA: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/20 ... ntu-20-04/

Welcome to gimpchat!
Like @racer-x I'm using the PPA from Ubuntu handbook and the Appimage from ferrero continuous release with plugins-x86-64 https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-ap ... continuous (scroll down until GIMP_AppImage-git-2.10.25-20210610-withplugins-x86_64.AppImage as of today)
appimage is GIMP 2.10.25 (no worries it's a 2.10.24 with perhaps bug fixes)
and the PPA is the stable 2.10.24 (you do need to purge the PPA from Otto kesselgulasch if you have it, as it is not anymore updated from a year or two then just "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntuhandbook1/gimp" and you will got the latest 2.10.24 on our Linux Mint)

Thank you very much for your answers !
And what about G'mic when I decide to download the Appimage version ?
Can I conserve Gimp 2.10.18 or must I remove it ?

Welcome to GimpChat Kijkeline.

I hope to discover soon your beautiful creations.

Welcome to Gimp Chat, Kijkeline.

Welcome to Gimp Chat.

If you download the "AppImage with Plugins" it will include G'mic. You can run the AppImage in parallel with Gimp 2.10.18 without issues. Be sure to make the Gimp AppImage executable in order to run it.

Why would you want to keep 2.10.18? you will miss the new vignette, long shadow and so added in 2.10.20

About G'MIC for the GIMP appimage see racer-x above post
both GIMP will work separately (appimage or handbook package), but not at the same time
Having those 2 GIMP is nice as you can setup the dockable dialogues, the tools, and so, completely differently from one GIMP to the other one (let say 1 for drawing, and 1 for photo), also the history docker will recall what you've open on the other GIMP (which is cool, no need to search for what you've opened previously in the other GIMP)

Be very careful, having 2 different GIMP with 2 different config, you will become very addicted!!

for my 2.10.24 (from handbook) I use the G'MIC .deb from gmic.eu (scrolldown on gmic.eu) as my *buntu distro is a LTS

Welcome to Gimp Chat Kijkline. Lovely to have you here.
