[3vi1 <1603501@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

On fully up to date 16.10 installs, gimp no longer starts.

1.  Run 'gimp' from console.
2.  Console returns:  "gimp: symbol lookup error: gimp: undefined symbol: gegl_param_multiline_get_type" and exits, instead of starting the app.

The installed package/version of gimp is 2.8.16-1ubuntu3.  Gimp was
previously working fine on this install, so my guess is the symbol was
deprecated/removed in a new version of some gegl lib.
