GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 304142
GIMP crashed when opening a file
Last modified: 2008-01-15 12:54:09 UTC
Distribution/Version: XP Home Edition with SP2 I have just installedI have just installed the GIMP 2.2.7(for Windows). When I try to open a file by pressing File>Open and then select a folder of my hardisk, I usually receive the following message: Pango-ERROR **: file shape.c: line 75 (pango_shape): assertion failed: (glyphs->num_glyphs > 0) aborting… And then GIMP crashed, so I can’t do any works with GIMP. As I am a user only but not a programmer, that’s all I can describe. Thanks.
I guess I may be a problem of GTK instead of GIMP...
You could have searched Bugzilla instead of guessing... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 301139 ***
Problem solved after I uninstalled the GTK and download the GTK from www.gtk.org and reinstall it. Thanks.
