GIMP 0.54.1 in a Flatpak

Description:
The GIMP project reports that
GNOME contributor "balooii" has worked to package GIMP
0.54.1released in 1996as a Flatpak that will build and
run on modern 64-bit Linux systems. This is a Motif -based
version, and the same version that was used
by Larry Ewing to create Tux. While not likely to be useful for serious 
graphics work today, it
should be interesting for users who would like to see what a
30-year-old version of GIMP was capable of.
