    I just installed a gimp plugin called wideangle on my Suse 9.3, Athlon64
    system but it crashes with a segmentation violation. I'm wondering if
    anybody has seen similar syptoms?

    I'm an occasional gimp user but have never tried installing plugins
    before. I downloaded the source from
    <http://members.ozemail.com.au/~hodsond/wideangle.html> and followed the
    instructions there:

       gimptool --install wideangle.c

    This produced the following output and installed the plugin:

    /usr/bin/install -c -d /root/.gimp-2.2/plug-ins
    gcc -O2 -fmessage-length=0 -Wall -g -fno-strict-aliasing
    -I/opt/gnome/include/gimp-2.0 -DXTHREADS -D_REENTRANT -DXUSE_MTSAFE_API
    -I/opt/gnome/include/gtk-2.0 -I/opt/gnome/lib64/gtk-2.0/include
    -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/opt/gnome/include/atk-1.0
    -I/opt/gnome/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/freetype2
    -I/usr/include/freetype2/config -I/opt/gnome/include/glib-2.0
    -I/opt/gnome/lib64/glib-2.0/include -o
    /root/.gimp-2.2/plug-ins/wideangle wideangle.c -L/opt/gnome/lib64
    -lgimpui-2.0 -lgimpwidgets-2.0 -lgimp-2.0 -lgimpcolor-2.0 -lgimpmath-2.0
    -lgimpbase-2.0 -lgtk-x11-2.0 -lgdk-x11-2.0 -latk-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0
    -lm -lpangoxft-1.0 -lpangox-1.0 -lpango-1.0 -lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0
    -ldl -lglib-2.0

    I ran all this as root, expecting to get a system-wide installation but
    apparently gimptool only installs for the current user, so I then copied
    the plugin from root's plug-ins directory to my own. When I ran gimp and
    selected the plugin, I saw the segv message in my terminal. gimp itself
    kept running.

    Has anybody successfully installed this plugin on an amd64 system? Or is
    there some other factor I'm missing?

    Thanks and regards,
    Dave
