This Flatpak runs a 30-year old version of GIMP – pre-GTK
Every wondered what famed FOSS image editor GIMP was like in 1996? Well, now you can find out. Developer balooii has packaged GIMP 0.54 into a Flatpak that runs on modern 64-bit Linux desktops with Wayland. It’s apparently the earliest version of the app with the source code still available to build. This is not not an official GIMP effort, but a community effort. It’s also something of a work-in-progress – of an ancient work-in-progress – with the maintainer promising they’ll share more era-specific plugins and tutorials on using this ancient build in time. Before you skip to the install […] You're reading This Flatpak runs a 30-year old version of GIMP – pre-GTK, a blog post from OMG! Ubuntu. Do not reproduce elsewhere without permission.
