Title:
  don't recommend out-of-date gimp-help-en

Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  Confirmed
Status in gimp-help package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I installed gimp with 
     sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends gimp

  and the install printed

    Suggested packages:
      gimp-help-en gimp-help gimp-data-extras

  so after gimp 2.8.10 installed successfully I ran
     sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends gimp-help-en

  but this installed gimp-help-common (2.6.1-1)  and  gimp-help-en
  (2.6.1-1), help for the OLD VERSION OF gimp.

  This is actively unhelpful for 90% of gimp users who are better off
  browsing up-to-date documentation at http://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/

  Until it's updated, gimp-help-en *shouldn't* be a recommended package
  for gimp, and the package information should have a disclaimer "Help
  for the old 2.6 version of gimp, this documentation hasn't been
  updated since 2011."
