I had the similar error.
It happened every time when using a clipboard for images.
When I turned off storing images in a 3-rd party clipboard program it only crashed when pasting a image to Telegram (net-im/telegram-desktop-bin)

Gtk-Message: 01:39:04.364: Failed to load module "appmenu-gtk-module"
using gegl copy
The program 'gimp' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 305786 error_code 3 request_code 18 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Reproducing the bug with gimp running in gdb yielded the same message as #2. There's already 2 of us, so it's fair to say this bug is confirmed.

This is already known upstream bug (and similar):

1. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/issues/789

2. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/issues/2733

3. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/issues/3295

I could only confirm in upstream bugzilla that it still reproduces because it's not gentoo specific issue.

[Comment 5 Sergey Torokhov 2024-05-05 13:45:58 UTC]

This issue seems to be fixed in Qt therefore the Gimp upstream currently considering the bug fixed (ref. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues/789#note_1515562)

I close it as obsolete. Please reopen it is still presented.

I confirm this is fixed by now.
