INSTALL GIMP 2.8 (STABLE) IN UBUNTU

Important: The PPA below provides GIMP 2.8 final for Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin and RC1 for Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot (the final GIMP 2.8 for Ubuntu 11.10 will probably follow shortly) and while the packages in the PPA worked just fine in my tests under both Ubuntu 12.04 and 11.10, the PPA description says that there are some dependency issues, especially for Ubuntu 11.10, so use it at your own risk!

If you've install the GIMP Plugin Registry package, remove it or else there will be some installation issues because this package hasn't been compiled with GIMP 2.8 support:
sudo apt-get remove gimp-plugin-registry

To add the PPA and install GIMP 2.8 stable in Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin or 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot (still at RC1 for now), use the following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:otto-kesselgulasch/gimp
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gimp

If you're upgrading from an older GIMP version, instead of the last command above, use the following:
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade


Revert the changes (go back to GIMP 2.6.x)


If you don't want to use the GIMP 2.8 packages from the PPA above for whatever reasons, you can purge it by using the following commands:
sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:otto-kesselgulasch/gimp

klo saya liat, itu belum update databasenya, jadi yang dibaca cuma gimp 2.6, coba diulang langkah 1 sampai 3.
