Update done on 2.7.2011 . Since then GIMP fails to start. Worked a week ago hence some updates in this time frame broke GIMP. rev-dep showed no dependency problems. Trying to run GIMP the following error appears in the terminal and GIMP crashes. (gimp:1740): GLib-WARNING **: goption.c:2132: ignoring no-arg, optional-arg or filename flags (8) on option of type 0 Segmentation fault I tried already re-ermeging media-libs/libpng-1.4.5, dev-libs/glib-2.28.8, x11-libs/gtk+-2.24.4 but the problem persists.

I find it a bit hard to understand this is flagged UNCONFIRMED if there is even a forum topic about it which at least one affected person :/
This might help tracking down the problem. Concerning confirmed or not in Ubuntu it is found confirmed affecting over 20 or so people. I tried some experimenting around and this is what I found. Using system settings => application appearance => gtk config . Various themes crash GIMP including "Rodent" and "Raleigh". With "bubble" though GIMP looks ugly but it does not crash. This leads me to the conclusion that something including the GTK Theme engine (or whatever ebuild is responsible for this) is bugged. Hence the crash reproduction step would look like this now: 1) Go to system settings => application appearance => gtk config 2) Set Theme to "Rodent" or "Raleigh" 3) Run GIMP 4) GIMP crashes 1) Go to system settings => application appearance => gtk config 2) Set Theme to "bubble" 3) Run GIMP 4) GIMP works (but looks ugly)
It looks like it is a GIMP specific crash. Other apps like Firefox work properly with the "Raleigh" theme but GIMP crashes. I don't know where to look more specifically for the problem.
I re-compiled now various libs and I guess I found the buggy one. After re-compiling media-libs/gegl-0.1.6 it works again. So something on this ebuild is incorrect (incorrect dependency thus not re-compiled with rev-dep).
Neither recompiling gegl nor changing gtk theme fixed this problem for me. There's a lot of people complaining about it, you can try googling for "GLib-WARNING **: goption.c:2132: ignoring no-arg, optional-arg or filename flags (8)", so I don't understand how this bug could be UNCONFIRMED...
Strangely, I only can start gimp by `strace gimp`. Obviously it's not a viable solution, but I hope this info could help solve this bug.
PLease do not CC arch team by yourself
(In reply to comment #7) > PLease do not CC arch team by yourself I CCed the arch team because this bug seems completely abandoned. After two months maybe someone should give a look at it. Or not?
ping
Is there anybody out there?..
Hello!
(In reply to comment #7) > PLease do not CC arch team by yourself There is no active maintainer for this package, as far as I can understand by looking at this bug report. Then, please assign this bug to someone else. I think it would be appropriate to CC the arch team, but I leave it to you...
Ping
Please, reassign this bug to someone else. Thanks.
Another hint from dmesg: gimp[32699]: segfault at 7fde2091f4d0 ip 00007fde2091f4d0 sp 00007fffe7ac28e8 error 14 in libncurses.so.5.9[7fde21288000+43000] Rebuilding ncurses doesn't help.
I don't know which one between net-libs/webkit-gtk-1.4.3-r200 and x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-285.03 fixed this issue, but gimp now works. I thank myself for my invaluable support. I'm welcome.
We already asked you once before not to CC arches on your own.
(In reply to comment #17) > We already asked you once before not to CC arches on your own. Yes, sorry. I should have CC myself, since no help nor the least advice came from this bug assignee. And all the arch team had to say is just to not CC them on my own. The first post in this thread is dated 2011-07-02. Do you know what "QA" mean? By the way... Sorry again.
Oh, I forgot... And this bug is still UNCONFIRMED! LOL. :D
I'm getting this too, in case anyone is wondering whether this bug in confirmed or not... media-gfx/gimp-2.6.11-r5 XFCE 4.6 GIMP was working fine for me a few days ago, before an world upgrade... Can I do anything to help diagnose?
Please retry with current versions in the tree
