Same problem for me. It continues after new kernel 4.4.0.31 installed today. I'm on nvidia geforce 610Ti with open source driver (nouveau) ... so it seems to be independent of the GPU.

Run 'gimp' from console. 2. Console returns: "gimp: symbol lookup error: gimp: undefined symbol: gegl_param_multiline_get_type" and exits, instead of starting the app. The installed package/version of gimp is 2.8.16-1ubuntu3. Gimp was previously working fine on this install, so my guess is the symbol was deprecated/removed in a new version of some gegl lib.
