alt Hacker NewsSo GIMP kept crashing on me when importing 48 bit TIFFs. I threw a trace at Codex (without so much as a local GIMP repo) from which it figured out that the culprit was thumb preview handling code. It suggested turning off two non-obvious to me options that would circumvent that codepath it indeed worked.

It's not like this is an unknown gimp problem - conventional search turns up plenty of results describing this class of bugs and advising to disable the previews.
You don't need to give it a local repo to work from, it'll just hammer the forge web interface to look at the code :)
