I don't really remember for certain... I think the command above fixed
it, but I may have updated libgimp2.0 or libgtk2.0  or libc6 and not
thought about it at the time.  I added Feisty repos to my sources list
and then did 'apt-get install gimp' (along with a few other things) and
after starting gimp once it wouldn't start again until I deleted the
config file (~/.gimp-2.2) and then removed feisty repos-- I didn't want
the instability problems with everything.  This isn't a problem someone
doing a dist-upgrade would have; only if you had packages from edgy AND
feisty would this happen.

Back then, I thought I fixed it by running

apt-get install gimp-data gimp-dbg gimp-print gimp-python gimp-svg gimp-
dcraw gimp-help-en gimp-perl gimp-python gimp-data-extras

but I wonder if I didn't install those libraries, too by
installing/upgrading something else.  Would it have been gimp-data or
gimp-data-extras (do those include the files that it would have been
processing when it crashed)?

Sorry I don't know for certain; if I had a spare system I would install
edgy and try to reproduce the problem (to see if it is fixed or not).
