After several happy years GIMP doesn't work any more. Clicks on the icons in the top line (like "Datei" in my German version) remain without any reaction.

I am using Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS.

Calling gimp gave the following messages:

    I don't see a problem. These are all WARNINGS, those are notifications to developers and maintainers of gimp. Almost ALL of these (except the 1st one) are the same issue so basically it is 1 warning, – Rinzwind Aug 12 '18 at 16:47
  • Did you change something related to fonts? This duplicate seems to suggest so, fix was to purge gimp and reinstall (a bit drastic though ): https://askubuntu.com/questions/931640/gimp-fails-to-open Bug repot https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gimp/+bug/1576977 – Rinzwind Aug 12 '18 at 16:53
