If GIMP is not available through Synaptic in 10.04, that will be the
point where Ubuntu and I part ways. Ubuntu is not the only distro
available, it is merely the most famous. If this article is correct, I
see myself trying to make Gnome work in Mepis. Hopefully Mepis will see
the gaping hole that Ubuntu is leaving in the market and put out a Gnome
distro.
