Gimp 2.10 crashing every time I try to cut or copy

[rich2005]

Always willing to give a try-out.  Lubuntu 20.04, installed in a VM  Default Gimp is 2.10.18 - is that the version you use.


edit: Another look.

Quote:I open a photo.  Highlight some area.

Large selections, they crash Gimp, 
Copy / paste / cut using menu or ctrl-c / v / x working here. I see the default clipboard is qlipper, that can save images as well as text. You could try clearing / turning that off. Turn qlipper off, seems large (sometimes small - all a bit flakey) graphic clips too much for it.

If you need a basic text only clipboard then parcellite is ok.

As Nelo wrote, some other application maybe causing the problem. Run htop, that might give some clues. screenshot.  https://i.imgur.com/6FcyJRb.jpg
