gimp folder got deleted

[Detective RooTz]

So recently I had a gimp problem I pasted my fonts folder everywhere in my computer and it just wouldn't work on gimp so I created a folder called fonts and put it into my gimp/2.0 to see if it would work. It didn't I uni-stalled gimp. Noticed that it's gimp folder in my File system was stillt here so I deleted it and reinstalled and go to boot gimp says something is missing. I already know it's becasue I'm missing my gimp folder. Can someone upload theres and give it to me? I do GFX sometimes and I need it.

What exactly is "tarball"???

[Gone]

Tarball is a tar.gz file. The way you install things before you had .deb or .rpm files.

Purge gimp and then install it ,

Code:

sudo apt-get remove --purge gimp && sudo apt-get install gimp

Thanks, I was looking for a purge command. I have writtten down all the commands I've came across so far and I'm going to make a hella huge conky all over my 2nd desktop you know on linux you get 1 and then a 2 desktop yeah have it all over it so that if I need a command I can switch over and see it and get it. I might try to put it in boxes like Windows 7 fences.

Okay. By doing that command I got all the folders except for usr/share/gimp/2.0/menus so can someone upload there menus folder in the gimp/2.0 section. It will take ten seconds pleasE?

Actually just do purge and then reinstall gimp-data and you will have it back.
