Which version of GIMP should I install?

Question

I have linox & want to download Gimp. Which version should I use?

What does Google Chrome, a web browser, have to do with the installation of an image editing application? — David Foerster, Nov 04 '14 at 11:26

In ubuntu, you can install gimp by running the following command:

sudo apt-get install gimp

Alternatively, open ubuntu software center, search for gimp and install it there.

This way, you will get Gimp version 2.8.10 (for ubuntu trusty and utopic). If you want a newer version (newest is 2.8.14), have a look at http://www.gimp.org/downloads/.

For additional information, look at How do I install applications in Ubuntu?.
