This wasn't a Mavericks bug; it can happen on linux too. For some reason, this only triggered on clang. Anyway, I just fixed it in gimp git (see commit 95becc7615c7e9cf2f6135c8d5b0fe1cca86648f). So, this will be fixed for the next release. -- drawoc On Sat, Nov 30, 2013 at 9:26 AM, Maurizio

[Gimp-developer] Setting Up a Release Procedure
