The installation instructions provided on the Gimp website (https://www.gimp.org/downloads/) uses Flatpak. This can create problems for Ubuntu users including:
- A broken / frustrating installation process
- Slow startup time for the program
- Missing icon / launcher


In this tutorial we show an easier way using Ubuntu's default package manager.
