At the time of writing this post GIMP 3.0.6 will release in a few days and will crash on start up if you have outdated plugins before late May 2025 There are multiple ways to fix the crash but the quickest is below. If you updated my GEGL plugins after late May 2025 you have nothing to worry about and can ignore this, but if you don't GIMP 3.0.6 will crash on startup due to the GEGL plugin `tsccake.so`

Quick fix on Linux to fix crash of GIMP 3.0.6

Linux normal

Code: Select all

rm -r ~/.local/share/gegl-0.4/plug-ins/tsccake.so

Linux Flatpak

Code: Select all

rm -r ~/.var/app/org.gimp.GIMP/data/gegl-0.4/plug-ins/tsccake.so

on Windows delete tsccake.dll

On Mac delete tsccake.dylib

(Most recommended) You can also update all my plugins here to their latest version including the working tsccake.so

bumping this thread so 3.0.6 users can see the problem.
