Hi folks,
I created a 45MB jpg with GIMP a few years ago. Now, when I
attempt to open the image, the file is successfully loaded, the
first tile or so is shown, then GIMP crashes because:
bash-2.05b$ gimp
GLib-ERROR **: could not allocate 16384 bytes
aborting...
gimp terminated: Abort trap
bash-2.05b$ LibGimp-WARNING **: script-fu: wire_read: unexpected EOF
bash-2.05b$
The version of GIMP that I am using is: 1.2.5.
Now, I realize that this is a GLib error, but I am looking
for pointers on why GLib is not able to allocate a few K of
memory. On a maching with nearly 1GB of free memory, I would
expect to be able to read a 45MB file (especially since I
created the image with less memory!)
Thank you,
Bruce
