Starting gimp via Numpad-0 opens a incomplete progressbar.

[ManfredL]

Binary package hint: gthumb

Starting gimp via Numpad-0 opens it correctly with the selected image. But in the background remains a non-working progress bar.
I have to close is manually, eg via the cross button, which kills gthumb too.
Another way is to close gimp. That closes the progress bar too and gthumb remains. So I don*t know, whose child the progress bar is.
Both ways are working reproducable.

Ubuntu 9.10

After installing all the debugging stuff I tried to create a backtrace:
dpkg -l | grep -i gthumb
ii gthumb 3:2.10.11-1ubuntu1 an image viewer and browser
ii gthumb-data 3:2.10.11-1ubuntu1 an image viewer and browser - arch-independe
ii gthumb-dbgsym 3:2.10.11-1ubuntu1 debug symbols for package gthumb

But gdb does not find the debug symbols:
gdb gthumb 2>&1 | tee ~/gdb-gthumb.txt

If necessary, please tell me, what more information I can collect.
