Back to gimp 2.6 (finding a debian repository or compiling ?)

Dear all:
The new save/export behavior of Gimp 2.8 is REALLY hard to adapt for me when dealing with non-XCF images.
I want to downgrade to 2.6, but Debian (both wheezy and sid) had already upgraded 2.6 to 2.8.
Do any Debian user here know where to find a debian repository that provide packages of gimp-2.6 (for wheezy/sid)? Or anybody know how to compile 2.6 on Debian (wheezy/Sid) step by step?

Thanks a lot~

Best Regards,

What is this file's file format? The utility file should tell.

Is there a reason why you try to build 2.6.11 and not the latest release of the old 2.6 branch, 2.6.12?
