Apparently 2.10.22 works OK.
I'm using 2.10.20 without plugins.

There is a "bug" (not so much a bug as a not-working here) report

https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-appimage/issues/61

These are automated Thursday night builds using latest code. It might be possible to tweak the compile parameters, the github log files suggest that. In the meantime Gimp 2.10.22 appimage works. If / when 2.10.24 comes along it is wait and see. The maintainer has said that not much own time available for this.

problem solved
I found the solution on the internet
I ran the following two commands:

sudo apt install GEGL
sudo apt install graphviz

Now everything works

Thanks for all the answers !!!

Excellent, you are a star. I already had gegl installed, from the ~otto-kesselgulasch PPA and installing graphviz gets that latest appimage working. This in kubuntu 18.04

(There is another way if you have an unpacked appimage, replace the usr/lib64/gegl-0.4 folder with one from the last unpacked appimage that works without graphviz. Obviously no good if you use the appimage single file)
