Version details: Gentoo, x86_64
Distribution/Version: Gentoo, x86_64

- create an image file
- use the open dialog the create a preview of that file
- delete the file while the open dialog is still open
- reselect the file (after selecting some other file)

Gimp now uses a lot of CPU without doing anything useful. In my opinion it
should stop after the first try and perhaps delete that file from the list (or
recreate the list).
Comment 1 Sven Neumann 2005-06-15 10:59:02 UTC 
Very well spotted; thanks for the report. Fixed in both branches:

2005-06-15  Sven Neumann  <sven@gimp.org>

        * app/core/gimpimagefile.c (gimp_imagefile_load_thumb):
        * app/widgets/gimpthumbbox.c (gimp_thumb_box_auto_thumbnail):
        don't display a preview and don't attempt to create one if the
        image file does not exist any longer (bug #307672).
