Hello, list - I have a severe problem that shows itself under OS X (10.9
Mavericks) both with GIMP 2.8.8 and with 2.8.10; 2.8.6 behaves correctly.
  The problem happens both on my iMac and on my MacBook Pro.

I have installed on my computers the distribution GIMP on OS X by Simone
Karin Lehmann; I have alerted about my problem the maintainer of the
distribution, because it is probably due to a wrong interaction of GIMP
with OS X graphics; but S.K.L. didn't answer to my two requests for help,
the first one for 2.8.8 and the second one, now, for 2.8.10.

Here is what happens: using the pencil tool (or the brush tool), with 2.8.6
I was used to see the outline of the brush shown on the GIMP canvas; that
was extremely useful since I was able to check the current size of the
brush on my screen, also while increasing/decreasing that size.  Now, I
cannot see the brush outline anymore.  And this happens with the
clone/healing tools too; I cannot see where the clone source will be set
(with cmd-click), nor where exactly the cloned zone will land on my image
(with left-click).


Check the setting:
  Edit  Preferences  Image Windows  Show brush outline

Maybe it's somehow been unselected, or perhaps the default has changed.

It is selected, but the brush outline doesn't show.  However, on the
gimp-developer mailing list, the bug has been tracked down to the use of a
pointer, dereferenced after having been freed; and will be corrected in a
future release.  Thank you any way for your suggestion!
