[SOLVED] Gimp 2.4.4-1 error (may have something to do with glibc)

coarseSand · 2008-02-11 19:26:47

I started having this error yesterday but haven't noticed anyone else with this issue on the forums so far.

The Gimp acts fine on start-up, but whenever I click on the Circular Selection tool in the toolbox the program will immediately crash. I decided to just not use that particular tool but creating a new image will do the exact same thing. I've started it up from a terminal to see if I could find the problem from the term output, but instead of anything succinct I get this:

*** glibc detected *** gimp: double free or corruption (out): 0x08c66970 ***

Unfortunately I don't know enough to solve this problem. I've tried doing a makepkg with the PKGBUILD from abs but it's still doing the same thing. I could try regressing to 2.4.3 but I don't have a PKGBUILD for it and I'd prefer to have pacman maintain my system. Does anyone have any suggestions or should I bite the bullet and finally try creating my own PKGBUILD?

Try changing your theme. There are some GTK themes that are blowing up applications, and I seem to remember murrine being one of them.

coarseSand · 2008-02-12 06:07:14

Found it. I am using Murrine Black but it wasn't causing any issues before. The problem was switching to the "small" icon set for the Gimp under preferences. I'd rather have the app working though, as much as I need to save screen space. Thanks for the suggestion skottish.

Just to let you know, I made an edit to the gtk-smooth-engine to try to rid myself of the GTK1 dependency, and I started to have crashes in GTK2 applications that started exactly like yours. Simply swap the word libmurrine with libsmooth and we're twins.

coarseSand · 2008-02-13 04:23:48

For the life of me I'd love to know why using a smaller icon theme that was installed with GIMP from the get go causes it to explode. Time to go and issue them a bug report.
