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.
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.
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 gimp: fatal error: Segmentation fault #0 0x00000036efa0ea5d in waitpid () from /lib64/libpthread.so.0 #1 0x00000036f0614ff2 in g_on_error_stack_trace () #2 0x0000000000467be3 in ??
