GIMP crashing on Plasma 6

Help
1

Hello,
I’m using GIMP but it crashes so ofter on Plasma 6. I tried it on KaOS and on a fresh-install Fedora 40, but it keeps crashing and crashing doing simple things. I can’t reproduce a specific action to make it crash, but every 5-10 minutes of work it crashes.

Is anyone having the same problem? Are you using GIMP on Plasma 6 without any issue?

Thanks

solution , then i posted to run these commands:

sudo pacman -Syu
sudo pacman -S gtk3 webkit2gtk
mkdir gimp
cd gimp
nano gimp.sh
gimp --sync
ctlr+s
sudo mv gimp.sh /usr/local/bin
gimp.sh # everytime you want to launch gimp

The gimp crashing issue is due to your kde plasma’s QT environment where gtk is not present where as in GNOME or xfce or any gtk absed Desktop Environment gimp will run fine so for fixing the following commands just installs gtk3 and webkit2gtk packages for making a perfect gtk environment for most applications out there, and then creates a directory called gimp and file inside gimp directory named as gimp.sh which just runs gimp --sync command to launch the gimp with gtk3 and webkit2gtk dependencies, and thne moves it to local binary directory also don’t forget to run chmod +x missing in the commands before attempting to move the gimp.sh to /usr/local/bin or you may find issues or permissions, if someone didn’t understood here are the full commands you will need to fix your gimp:

sudo pacman -Syu
sudo pacman -S gtk3 webkit2gtk
mkdir gimp
cd gimp
nano gimp.sh
gimp --sync
ctlr+s
chmod +x gimp.sh
sudo mv gimp.sh /usr/local/bin
gimp.sh # everytime you want to launch gimp

I hope this fixes the issue
