[Bug 742516] Re: gimp-2.6 crashed with SIGSEGV in g_closure_invoke() (with oxygen GTK theme)

 

Hi :)  
Just had the problem again on Ubuntu 14.04.  The work-around; 

mkdir ~/gimp-2.8

fixed it.  But then it grumbled that;

Failed to parse tag cache: No such file or directory

which didn't seem to stop gimp from working.  However after closing
gimp, which i had run from the command-line, i found it had grumbled
about several missing sub-folders so i had to do;

cd ~/gimp-2.8
mkdir palettes
mkdir gradients
mkdir patterns
mkdir dynamics
mkdir brushes

I'm sure a more linuxy way would be something like this

mkdir ~/gimp-2.8
cd ~/gimp-2.8
mkdir  palettes   gradients   patterns   dynamics   brushes

I can't help feeling i'm missing quite a lot of useful stuff in my version of gimp now but i only need it for cropping at the moment and that works fine.  
Regards from 
Tom :)
