This is the page and details of the packages.

Instructions are on the page but I advise uninstalling your existing Gimp 2.8 
packages first.

then 

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:otto-kesselgulasch/gimp-edge
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gimp

Note: Unlike Gimp 2.8 the Gimp profile is  ~/.config/GIMP/2.9

I run this in a kubuntu 16.04 64 bit - no real problems
