Looking at matthaeus123's launchpad page, it looks like the 2.7.3 version is still floating around. You just have to specify that version when you apt-get install (after adding the ppa). The syntax is
sudo apt-get install package_name=package_version So try specifying one of those 2.7.3 versions and see if that works for you.

Status in “gimp” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gimp It appears that sometimes when the pen is lifted a "button up" command is somehow not sent to gimp. This is new in Natty (it all worked beautifully in Maverick) gimp 2.6.11, ubuntu natty Wacom intuous3 6x8 To reproduce: make sure you have selected wacom as extended input device. Press "P" to paint. Make a stroke. Very often (but not always) at the end of the stroke when the pen is lifted the paint cursor remains at the end of the stroke and does not follow the pointer. It's necessary to click again (anywhere, or with any button) to get the cursor following the pointer again before you can draw another stroke. This makes gimp unusable.
