GIMP For Ubuntu 10.04

[Sandip Niroula]

I have freshly installed Ubuntu 10.04.
I found GIMP isn't available.
So, can i install it from Ubuntu9.10?

[Akash Deep Shakya]

Hello Sandip,

Ubuntu 10.04 have left out GIMp because they thought normal users hardly use it. You can either download it from local repo or use the package if you have it. I am not quite sure if they allow you to use from 9.10 because the ubuntu cd is packaged. GIMP is not that big so, you can easily download it from anywhere.

Have a great time designing :)

If you are a absolute beginner, I suggest to use Synaptic (System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager) instead.
