Bug Description

I have installed kubuntu 11.04 and gimp. Crashes on startup.

pelliott@hrnowl:~$ gimp --version
GNU Image Manipulation Program version 2.6.11
pelliott@hrnowl:~$ gimp

(gimp:3823): GLib-WARNING **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./glib/goption.c:2132: ignoring no-arg, optional-arg or filename flags (8) on option of type 0
Segmentation fault

pelliott@hrnowl:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 11.04
Release: 11.04
pelliott@hrnowl:~$
pelliott@hrnowl:~$ apt-cache policy gimp
gimp:

perhaps gimp has undefined dependancies not satisfied under kubuntu?
