Hi,


Does anyone know who/how/why Gimp was removed from testing?


I found the links below, but to me they don't explain any valid
reasons or how this decision was made (automated or by human) ?


So curious how such a well known package becomes removed. And wonder
how it will be available when Stable is released.

Gimp was removed from testing on 2024-09-25[1] due to the ongoing
transition.  See [2] for more details.

I think you can enable sid (if only temporarily) and install it from
there.
