Description Matthew Miller 2009-03-06 15:46:28 UTC

Description of problem:

Gimp crashes with 

(script-fu:6194): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: script-fu: gimp_wire_read(): error
Segmentation fault


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Pretty sure it started with gimp-2.6.5-1.fc11.x86_64; still happens with 
gimp-2.6.5-2.fc11.x86_64.

How reproducible:

Inconsistent, but frequent.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open gimp, do stuff.
2. Sometime in the session, when you click on the menu, boom. (Not necessarily the script-fu menu.)
  
Actual results:


(script-fu:6194): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: script-fu: gimp_wire_read(): error
Segmentation fault

The number varies; I  assume it's a PID.

Expected results:

No crash.

Comment 1 Matthew Miller 2009-03-06 16:03:06 UTC

I should add that I've tried moving my .gimp-2.6/ out of the way so it's starting with a clean profile — no improvement.

Comment 2 Matthew Miller 2009-03-06 16:09:58 UTC

In this example, I ran gimp and then simply clicked on the file menu — no other actions. Before the menu even popped up, crash:

$ gimp --stack-trace-mode=always
