GIMP 2.2 segfaulting

Hi,

Did a apt- dist-upgrade on my SuSE 9.2 system last night. And now i cant run GIMP at all.
It starts, but as soon as i press any of the buttons "File" , "Xtns" or Help to load files or anything it segfaults with a message sucha as:

~> gimp

(gimp:26963): Gdk-WARNING **: Using Cairo rendering requires the drawable argument to
have a specified colormap. All windows have a colormap, however, pixmaps only have colormap by default if they were created with a non-NULL window argument. Otherwise a colormap must be set on them with gdk_drawable_set_colormap

Looks like you are using an unstable development version of GTK+. That is your problem then, you should have known that this might cause problems. Downgrade to a stable GTK+ release.

IIRC, this is because the gtk-qt-engine for themes is doing naughty things, and the rules are being enforced actively in development GTK+s.

You can downgrade to GTK+ 2.6.x like Sven suggested, or switch to a theme that does not use gtk-qt-engine.
