[Gimp-user] I can't open gimp

[rich2005 <forums gimpusers com>]

Well gimp starts from a terminal with both, gimp or gimp-2.8 so it is not that
and your English is better than my French. Not sure of 'greffons' Translates as
'masks'

Can you try this, in a terminal (note wildcard *)

sudo apt-get purge gimp* libgimp*

Hopefully that will get rid of all your existing Gimp installation 

then in a terminal

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:otto-kesselgulasch/gimp

follow the instructions which are:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install gimp

Then check in the graphics menu for Gimp.

If really stuck try www.gimp-forum.net the moderator is French.
