Thanks.  Anyone know what an 'unstable installer' is?

It means the installer is not 100% tested. In other words there's a possibility things might go wrong- most likely the worst that will happen is Gimp won't work, though there's a remote possibility it'll mess with a vital system file which stops other programs working.
