It is well possible that comment #19 above points out the real cause of this problem, thanks to Frido Otten. GIMP seems to be unable to create its configuration folder (~/.gimp-2.6) or the code looking for a possibly existing configuration folder is crashing due to a coincidence with another folder introduced in Ubuntu 11.04.
It would also be useful to figure out what is changed by just "switch to Raleigh and back", which worked for Onewing. A directory or another object is created somewhere, possibly, which helps GIMP to avoid executing the problematic case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/742516 Title: gimp-2.6 crashed with SIGSEGV in g_closure_invoke() -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
