Description:

Latest lcms 2.10 seg-faults GIMP 2.10.18 in Gnome, when system monitor profile setting is checked or when reading color profiles in the images. Reverting back to 2.9 fixes this.


Additional info:
* lcms 2.10 https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/lcms2/
* here's my report what GIMP posted when I had this bug: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=256292

Steps to reproduce:
- Upgrade the system the usual way.
- You need to have active and custom-made color profile used for your monitor.
- Start GIMP and notice that it will either immediately crash if you have "use system monitor profile" checked in the prefs or when you open the image with a color profile built-in.
- Reverting back to v2.9 lcms package makes everything ok.
This task depends upon

Worked with the dev, he fixed it. I'm expecting new version to come soon.

Dev updated it. It's on the sourceforge site, it's the same ver as before - 2.10, but two files have been changed. He said one bug was lingering since 2.8 but somehow became apparent in 2.10 and crashed GIMP under certain circumstances. Now it works as should.

As far as I know, these files have been changed yesterday when we pinpointed the issue:

cmsxform.c
cmsalpha.c

But yes, could be others too. It's best to dl the whole package at GIT.

He didn't change the ver number, it's still 2.10.
