Try opening a random image.  Make a selection, and go to Filters >

Actually, you're all done.  The gimp-plugin-repository package
installs many of the most popular and useful plugins from the
Repository in one go.

Fire up Synaptic again, find gimp-plugin-repository, and read the
full description of the package.  This lists what it installed for
you.  The commands to use these thingies and dealie-bobs are in the
GIMP's menus, usually in the places you would expect to find them.
