Description Eridani 2012-08-29 03:27:47 UTC
Overview: 
Official GIMP binary offered by gimp.org at http://www.gimp.org/downloads/ crashes on launch.

Steps to Reproduce: 
1. Install it
2. Try launching it

Actual Results: 
The application crashed immediately.

Expected Results: 
Well, of course it should not crash.

Platform were bug occurs: 
OS - Mac OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard
CPU - 1.83GHz Intel Cored Duo (32bit)
GPU - ATi Radeon X1600
RAM - 2 GB


Platforms were bug doesn't occur:
Same machine - Using Macport's gimp2 v2.8.0 (either with or without X11)
Same machine - Using Gimp on OS X's (v2.8.0) http://gimp.lisanet.de
Mac Intel Core 2 Duo (64bit) / Mac OSX 10.6.8 - Using gimp.org or any other version.

Additional Information:
Well i think this binary (the one posted at gimp.org download page) was build targeting only 64 bit Macs; you can read a line in the log file i attached wich says:
"Bad CPU type in executable"
This usually happens when you try to launch any application build either for PPC (when Roseta isn't installed) or for 64bit.

Correct:
$ file /Applications/GIMP.app/Contents/MacOS/GIMP-bin 
/Applications/GIMP.app/Contents/MacOS/GIMP-bin: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
Comment 3 Clayton Walker 2012-09-01 07:35:20 UTC
That is correct, my app only support a 64 bit operating system. Working on getting that information on the website as we speak.

Please look for skl's x11 version for possible 32 bit versions of gimp.
