[Gimp-developer] About N-Point Deformation.

[Mario Mey <mariomey gmail com>]

Hello there. I need to run GIMP in Debian 9 and I need N-Point Deformation
tool. I installed from flatpak 2.10.14, but that tool crashes GIMP. So, I
installed an old version, 2.10.0 RC2 (48MB flatpak file, from
https://download.gimp.org/mirror/pub/gimp/v2.10/linux/). It works... but I
saw that is an old version... and I don't really trust in this
installation.

Then, I learnt how to install a commit with flatpak. I tried to install a
version from 2019/Jan. And it works... but N-Point Def tool works veeerryyy
sloooww....

Does anybody knows if that tool is working well in a particular commit? I
don't want to try eeeverryy commit.
