gimp 2.8 has been released but it’ll take a while for it to filter through to the repos of your favourite distro. can’t wait? install it from source. i followed this very helpful tutorial. it’s for debian but there are hints for lmde also. i ran into one issue… had to do an apt-get install intltool in order for things to compile correctly. single window mode? yes. some of your scripts may throw some errors but all that i’ve tried are fully functional despite this.
