--- Comment #6 from Ma Xiaojun damage3025@gmail.com 2012-05-25 11:02:32 CDT --- After spending hours downloading wine stuff and gimp, I'd say I cannot reproduce your bug.
I have a 32bit Ubuntu 12.04 inside VirtualBox 4.1.14 (Mac OS X) and a 64bit Ubuntu 12.04 on a physical machine.
Both of them have latest wine from PPA installed. $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install wine1.5
Both of them use clean WINEPREFIX. $ rm -rf ~/.wine
The gimp version I tested is 2.8. $ openssl sha1 gimp-2.8.0-setup.exe SHA1(gimp-2.8.0-setup.exe)= e75fed214f1c3a45870aad9d028aa76cc886b81b
On both Ubuntu, I can successfully launch gimp and open the about dialog.
I'd say maybe your host OS is somehow broken. Let me try your link of gimp 2.6 also.
