What he says! ;)

Same for a few programs, like the Krita graphics program (which I fell in love with ;) ).
Version 2.9 on LL 3.x and 4.x on LL 4.x

For the veterans here :
When this happens, can we "force" install these? Tried to update Kernel wihout success.
Fake the Ubuntu version temporalily or something...

Ok, thanks
I won't let an old, but fully functional computer die just because some company tell me that they won't make no more security updates to their OS. Thanks Linux :)

We already use that PPA in Series 3.x. You can't get 2.10.8 unless you're on Series 4.x or higher.

Hi.
I already had Gimp version 2.10.8 installed.
So I decided to install the newest version:
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get autoremove gimp gimp-plugin-registry
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:otto-kesselgulasch/gimp
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gimp
But - I end up getting the version 2.10.8 installed instead.Can anybody point out what I'm doing wrong here ?
