Gimp 2.0pre4 file selection hangs

I have Gimp 2.0pre4 installed in SuSE 9.0 on a 733 coppermine P6. When I use the drop-down menu, File -> Open, with the file-type Automatic, and select a file to open which has not been previewed, the file open dialog hangs. It also changes hi-lite to gray. After approx 5 minutes, I can close the dialog, but, when re-opening the dialog to select a file, the dialog remains grayed-out. Re-opening Gimp returns normal control of the dialog.

If the file has been previewed, the selection works properly. If I try to preview a file which has not been previously previewed, the selection dialog hangs.

I can open files successfully if I first select the file type from the menue.

The file selection dialog hanging does not hang Gimp. I am still able to work with previously opened files, open recently used files, or use any other option in the drop-down menu.

More information. I have discovered that the rawphoto plugin from Dave Coffin was the problem. I see that he has a later version 1.3 dated 2004/03/05 17:07:57.

I will report results after install. (I have something pressing).

The new rawphoto.c plugin has solved my problem. Thanks,

To avoid such problems, the final gimp-2.0.0 release will have the GIMP_PROTOCOL_VERSION and GIMP_MODULE_ABI_VERSION increased. This means that no plug-ins or modules compiled for gimp-1.3 will work with gimp-2.0.

I'm a little concerned that a plugin can cause a core app hang.
