GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 307066
Crash when saving image
Last modified: 2008-01-15 12:55:46 UTC
Go to http://www.furious.com/perfect/indiedownloads.html Drag the first image (chriscutler.jpg) to GIMP, and then do Save As... GIMP now crashes. Here's stdout: (22:57:12) peppo@senap:~$ gimp dcraw -i '/home/peppo/.gimp-2.2/tmp/gimp_temp_104720.jpg' /home/peppo/.gimp-2.2/tmp/gimp_temp_104720.jpg: unsupported file format. Segmentation fault (22:57:29) peppo@senap:~$ (script-fu:10473): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: script-fu: wire_read(): err
Hmm. A stack trace would be helpful here. Please do the following: run the command "gdb gimp"; at the prompt type "run"; do what it takes to make GIMP crash; at the prompt type "where"; copy the output you get and put it into this bug report. Please also let us know your Linux distro, your Gtk+ version, and where you got GIMP from -- any of these could be relevant.
I reckon this info is not very useful. Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Are you using the gnome-vfs backend for the file chooser?
/me points at the debian package. should I remove this bug and open up a debian one instead?
Pointing at the debian package doesn't answer the question. If you are using the gnome-vfs backend, this bug is a duplicate.
I thought this was dependent on how GIMP was compiled. I had mailed the Debian GIMP developer ari for an answer to that. What components decides if I am using the gnome-vfs back for the file chooser? By the _looks_ of it, it looks like the GNOME file chooser, but I cannot be sure.
If you're using the full gnome desktop, check the gconf setting: /desktop/gnome/interface/file_chooser_backend If that's set to 'gnome-vfs', you are. If it is and you set it to 'gtk+' and this problem goes away, this is a duplicate bug.
