 The release packages are usually rather old so I use stable.
 Thanks.

 I have gimp installed under 9.1, amd64, built from ports and it works
 great.  I don't know about packages, however.
 
 Well then that would mean packaging is broken or
 the port code hasn't made it to FTP package building yet,
 so nobody can use the package for a while now.

I wouldn't know about that as I'm not familiar with 
the mechanism by which official packages are produced.

I just wanted to use it so I built it from ports.

Sorry I don't have any more info / can't be of more help.
