Try install gimp-2.10 in Debian testing. lbic6-2.27 is in it.

I see that there is PPA in your system. Ubuntu PPAs are not compatible with Debian! I understand that this is your system and in it you can do whatever you want, but never come here in the forums, that something is broken or not working ...

What should i do ??

Hi and thks for your answer but you need to understand i was using Windows not long time ago .... i changed totally for linux, so i'm really new ...

[GarryRicketson]

That is why you should read some of the Debian documentation:
https://wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebian

Repositories that can create a FrankenDebian if used with Debian Stable:

Debian testing release (currently buster)

Debian unstable release (also known as sid)

Ubuntu, Mint or other derivative repositories are not compatible with Debian!
Ubuntu PPAs

Don't worry about it. Most of us have broken an install or two in the past. Just reinstall and stick with Debian Stretch.

You don't have to download anything and then install it, just use apt install and it will download and install at once. That was one of the main things that messed me up when I switched,

[Fred34]

ok so i managed...
When i was doing apt-get update a lot of errors.... the key wasn't update anymore

Code: Select all

i tried that apt-key adv --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys [NUMKEY]

And only after that i managed to reinstall gimp, i did that to update gimp 2.8 to 2.10 .... i could just reinstall 2.8 impossible to update it... it's fine i give up
At least i've Gimp ^^
Thanks

[bw123]

Yeah the same thing I did wrong when I switched was always trying to get the latest version of everything. Bad habit and hard to quit..

good luck!

[debiman]

And only after that i managed to reinstall gimp, i did that to update gimp 2.8 to 2.10

so you have gimp 2.10 on debian stable?
that shouldn't be possible without backporting; i suspect something's still wrong. maybe not apparent atm, but after the next upgrade... or the one after that...
if you can't break that habit then you might want to start with a hand-holding sort of gui-only distro like mint or *buntu, instead of debian.

[Fred34]

no no no
i saw there was this version but i could'n install it, so i manage to put back the 2.8

[stevepusser]

Ummm...try searching these forums for "gimp 2.10" and see if there's a post from just two days ago that has a repo for Stretch for 2.10?

And please edit the title of your first post to add "2.10" and add [Solved], since your problem was entirely about trying to install 2.10, not the stable gimp.
