GIMP Version: 3.0.0
Operating System: Linux
GIMP Experience: Experienced User



I have downloaded the Gimp3.0.0-RC2 appimages and I am wondering what is the difference between them and can I safely delete one of them and still use the other. One is GIMP-3.0.0-RC2+git-aarch64 and the other is GIMP-3.0.0-RC2+git-x86_64. Also, can I delete the folder structure or is it important?

From your earlier post: I ran dpkg --print-architecture and it is amd64.
That is the intel/amd architecture, the x86_64 so that is the one to use. the other one is the ARM cpu version.

You can put the file GIMP-3.0.0-RC2+git-x86_64.AppImage in any sensible location where you can find it again (and make a desktop file to there if you know how to do that) Make sure it is executable.

...and here it is running off a usb drive I just double-clicked and away it goes ;)

Thank you Rich. Up and running so now I just have to organize the GUI the way I like it and see if there is a small icon theme.

rc2 has several less crashes. For example RC1 crashes with re-opening a saved offset filter.

RC2+Git just recently had a new bug where bucket fill and warp transform crashes GIMP. Make sure this version doesn't have that.

Both seem to be working so far. Thanks for the heads-up.
