Possible bug?
Anonymous (72.252.71.x) 1194250760|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

Good day.
While I was playing with this awesome plug in I think I may have found a bug.
While editing a 100x100 image if the plug in is called two times on the same image, it will crash the second time. Producing the following error:
The error.
Sorry for it being a screenshot, can't select anything in the prompt.
Sometimes the error doesn't appear at the second time, more calls of the plug in are needed. Another interesting thing is that if I attempt to to execute the plug-in in the same image, even if I do trivial editing like not changing the size, the plug-in crashes.
But if I create a second image, and I execute the plug in there once, when I come back to the original 100x100 image I can run the plug in, of course for a limited numbers of times until the crash happens again.
The OS I am using is vista, and I am using a precompiled executable of both, the plug in and the GIMP.
So I go and install the GIMP in a XP machine, along with the plug in.
I wasn't able to produce the crash in there. I had planned trying in a Ubuntu installation, but I guess it's obvious the problem is vista specific.

Any hope?
I know it's highly unlikely there is a programmer out there using vista who can spare some time to look at this. I am happy it isn't like the problems other people are having, at least I can use the plug-in in most images and found a workaround for these specific cases…

Are you using the latest version of the plugin?
It looks like it's the previous one, because in the 0.3.0 version:

  • there shouldn't be any assert instruction, since they are inactivated
  • the one you found (assertion failed etc.) should be in file lqr_cursor.c, not render.c

(BTW, I couldn't reproduce the bug in Ubuntu)

Thanks for detailed report anyway, that's the way!

Actually no, I got my copy from the plug in registry, the binary appears to be the version 0.2.1.
Tried with the one avaible here, and besides having no crash I love the new interface. :D

I'm having a hard time compiling lqr from source. configure aborts with the following:

checking for GIMP… yes
checking for LQR… yes
./configure: line 8139: syntax error near unexpected token ‘(’
./configure: line 8139: ‘ for ac_var in `(set) 2>&1 | sed -n ’s/^\([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*\)=.*/\1/p'‘; do’
jim@groucho:~/programs/all_gimps/plugins/tools/gimp-lqr-plugin-0.4.0>

I am using the 0.4.0-1 version which names the directory to 0.4.0
