In case anyone else hits this, perhaps this will help...

Another user ran into this very issue on a Debian system but removing
gimp and reinstalling didn't fix the issue.

In order to find the conflicting library, the user removed gimp and it's
dependencies then searched for any remaining libraries to manually
remove:

$ sudo apt-get remove --purge gimp
$ sudo find / -iname "*babl*"
$ sudo find / -iname "*gegl*"
$ sudo find / -iname "*gimp*" 

Remove any lingering libraries before re-installing gimp.

Title:
  undefined symbol: gegl_rectangle_subtract

Status in gimp package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I'm running focal and have both the snap and the deb of gimp
  installed.

  The snap runs just fine (although there is a GeglBuffer leak:
  https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/gimp-geglbuffer-leak/15732).

  However, if I run the deb from the command line, it won't start and
  fails with:

  heather@bmo:~$ gimp
  gimp: /usr/local/lib/libbabl-0.1.so.0: no version information available (required by gimp)
  gimp: /usr/local/lib/libbabl-0.1.so.0: no version information available (required by /lib/libgimpwidgets-2.0.so.0)
  gimp: /usr/local/lib/libbabl-0.1.so.0: no version information available (required by /lib/libgimpcolor-2.0.so.0)
  gimp: symbol lookup error: gimp: undefined symbol: gegl_rectangle_subtract

  libgegl is installed but maybe there's an additional gimp/gegl package
  that provides this symbol and would need to be included in main for
  the gimp deb to work:

  heather@bmo:~$ dpkg -l | grep gegl
