You are correct about the flatpak. I use 2.10.8 flatpak in a Kubuntu 16.04. There are ways-and-means of getting many plugins working. Lack of QT support means no gmic_qt plugin. Too many dependency issues for both gutenprint and SANE. Apart from that, python plugins and script-fu works ok. Why use it, still plenty questions around from Gimp 2.8.x users, so I run that as well. Up to you but a Kubuntu 18.10 has an end-of-life 2019-07 while Kubuntu 18.04 is 2023-04 All depends how you want to maintain your installation. rich: www.gimp-forum.net -- rich404 (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
