https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D281487 Bug ID: 281487 Summary: GIMP causing hard-hang on 13.3p6 (caused by old config dir) Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: freebsd@tim.thechases.com I wish I had a better timeframe for when this started happening, but it's been more than a year (I don't use GIMP that often, and I figured it was a fluke last time and haven't revisited it until now). Upon startup, it would display the gray box where it usually shows the splash-screen, and then hang hard. The mouse would continue to move, but I couldn't click on any other windows, using key-chords to switch Fluxbox to a different desktop wouldn't work, and using control+alt+F1 to go to the text console also failed. Tapping the power button had no effect and required the hold-it-down-for-five-seconds to kill the machine. I didn't have another machine on at the time to test if I could ping my FreeBSD box. After some troubleshooting, it appears to have been my ~/.config/GIMP directory. Renaming that to _GIMP allowed me to start it uneventfully. The configuration directory had no manual changes, only things that GIMP saw fit to write there through normal use. I've tgz'ed up my ~/.config/GIMP directory and posted it[1] (redacting my local username from a comment in themerc and didn't include two backups/backup-00?.xcf files but can provide those if they're suspect) and have included my dmesg[2] (taken after the hang/reboot) If there's any other info that would be helpful, I can try and capture requisite information. I asked about this on Reddit[3] and was advised to mention the issue to the listed maintainer because hard-hang bugs are considered serious. So here's my bug report. _____ [1] http://old.thechases.com/tmp/config_gimp.tgz [2] http://old.thechases.com/tmp/freebsd_dmesg.txt [3] https://www.reddit.com/r/freebsd/comments/1ffwdgt/gimp_causing_hard_hang_on= _freebsd_133p6/ --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
