Hi, I compiled the latest stable version of gimp, but I want to go back to the one in the repositories, how do I uninstall the compiled version?

Signatures are a myth.
Wouldn't this work?
sudo dpkg --purge gimp
Does Synaptic see it?
Also, there should be a README file in the tarball. Check that as it may contain removal instructions.
If you installed with "sudo make install" then cd back to build dir. and run "sudo make uninstall"
================================================== ==============
if you've removed the build (source) dir. then you can manually remove, unless specified then it would have installed to /usr/local/*
(usr/local/bin, /usr/local/share, ect. ect.
(you could also rebuild the gimp source as before, run a sudo make install followed by a sudo make uninstall
