RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Phillip Andrews 2022-11-12 21:06:58 UTC 
Description of problem:
Currently when GIMP encounters a warning it tries to debug and launches gdb, which results in the program hanging up for a while. Users might assume the program has crashed and force quit, resulting in a lot of data. etc/gimprc.in should be patched to change "(debug-policy warning)" to "(debug-policy critical)"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.99.8-3.el9

How reproducible:
Whenever GIMP encounters an non-critical warning

Actual results:
GIMP tries to attach gdb, resulting in high CPU usage and a period of non-responsiveness. 

Expected results:
GIMP should not try to debug a non-critical warning in a production environment.

Solution:
Patch etc/gimprc.in to change the debug-policy setting from "warning" to "critical".
Comment 1 Josef Ridky 2022-11-14 09:04:27 UTC 
Currently we're providing Tech Preview of GIMP in CentOS stream 9 and RHEL-9, which is based on developer version of GIMP. Such behaviour is though expected.

Unless you have business justification with Customer Portal ticket opened, I'm not going to patch developer version of the GIMP.
