[LUG] Gimp-2.7.1 from source on Ubuntu

 

Just thought I'd share this one:

http://blog.bloke.com/2010/06/howto-build-gimp-2-7-1-from-source-step-by-step-ubuntu/

It's a really simple guide to installing from source, and gimp-2.7.1 has a Single 
Window Mode in the Window menu for all of those who can't get to grips with the 
standard gimp interface!

It was nice to build it from source too! Did 2.7.2 the night before, but just a 
little bit too experimental for me, that one! The ubuntu repos version is at 2.6.11.

Not a lot in the way of learning how to compile from source, or why things are done 
in the Tut itself, but I found most of that out for myself anyway and I know plenty 
of people who could help me out if I get stuck :)

Just nice to find one simple enough for me and that works without making my brain 
bleed!
