There is new version of gimp package (gimp-2.8.22-2). Please, try this version and let us know, if the issue persist. When I have tested this issue with Assistant font and I wasn't able to reproduce it.

Based on comment #2: Issue was caused by wrong file permission. Due this I am closing this as NOTABUG.
@Josef please note, that I can't confirm that was the case, as this bug report was from a different machine which I don't have any-more. The listing above is from my current machine.
