Too bad gimp1.2 is just a transitional package:
jkoenig@note:~$ apt-cache search -n ^gimp
gimp - The GNU Image Manipulation Program, stable version 2.0
...
gimp1.2 - Transitional dummy package for upgrading The GIMP
...
jkoenig@note:~$

The OP would be better off building from source and putting it in
/usr/local/ (perhaps with --program-suffix=1.2 or some such)
