palette mapping (again)

I'm using Gimp-2.2-pre1 and find that now gimp allows to map with a palette with more than 256 colors. I don't know if it's a trick, because palettes with more than 256 colors aren't listed in aviable palletes to map with, but if I type the name of my palette, gimp maps the palette.

I have to test that feature from a python-fu script but the only result i get is a gimp crash.

This is the output

(dbbrowser:12220): LibGimp-WARNING **: dbbrowser: gimp_flush(): error: Broken pipe

(script-fu:12194): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: script-fu: wire_read(): error

Segmentation fault

-----------------

please help, i need this feature.

several of the palettes that come with gimp are more than 256 colors. Try Named Colors, for example.

can you describe what you did to get gimp to "map to a palette with more than 256 colors" in terms of which gimp options you used to do this?

Hi,

There are only 256 color indices in your image so what good would using a larger palette do?

As mentioned in the file INSTALL, you should have uninstalled GIMP 2.0 instead of just installing GIMP 2.2 over it. dbbbrowser shouldn't be there. That doesn't explain the crash though.
