Gimp simply dumps it core if its tries to share it memory (default behavore) with one of the plugins. Fix: Add the --no-shm How-To-Repeat: Start gimp under system out of the CVS of RELEND_4_8 15 jun 2003 with out any options.
Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-ports-bugs->gnome Over to maintainers
State Changed From-To: open->feedback I am running -STABLE, and was unable to reproduce this with 1.3.15 or 1.3.16. Which version of gimp are you using? Did you install it from ports or packages? Do you have Sys V primative support compiled into the kernel?
State Changed From-To: feedback->closed The submitter had removed Sys V primative support from his kernel. Without these options, gimp will not be able to use shared memory space for its plugins. Since Sys V primatives are enabled by default, this bug will not be fixed.
