Installing unstable GIMP with Flatpak

:: gimp, flatpak, packages, packaging, system

By: Maciej Barć

Add Flathub-Beta

Add the Flathub-Beta remote repository:

1
flatpak remote-add --user flathub-beta https://flathub.org/beta-repo/flathub-beta.flatpakrepo

Install GIMP beta

Install org.gimp.GIMP form flathub-beta:

1
flatpak install --assumeyes --user flathub-beta org.gimp.GIMP

Run GIMP

If you have other GIMP versions installed you will have to specify the “beta” version with //beta.

1
flatpak run org.gimp.GIMP//beta

Otherwise you can just run:

1
flatpak run org.gimp.GIMP

Also, in the desktop menus (like KRunner) this version of GIMP will have (beta) in its name so there is no chance to miss it.
