Package: gimp
Version: 2.6.6-1+b1
Severity: normal

The help-browser plugin crashes whenever it is invoked (Help button or
F1 key), displaying a dialog with “Help browser doesn't start / Could
not start the GIMP help browser plug-in.”   At the same time 

> GLib-ERROR **: The thread system is not yet initialized.  
> aborting...

is writted to stderr.

I only rarely use the GIMP’s help so I cannot say with any confidence
when this bug appeared.

Severity: normal because a nonfunctional help system does not prevent
use of any of the GIMP’s features but is too serious to be considered
minor.
