Installing GIMP 2.8 on Ubuntu 12.04 instructions will work on Ultimate Edition 3.5 ; because I have just succeeded updating GIMP on my Ultimate Edition 3.5 os. :D
So here goes:-
1. Uninstall Gimp from your system:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get autoremove gimp gimp-plugin-registry


2. Add the following ppa :
Code: Select all
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:otto-kesselgulasch/gimp

Code: Select all
sudo apt-get update


3. Install Gimp 2.8 :
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install gimp


ps. This worked on my system flawlessly so it should work on yours as well ; cheers. <BREW>
