I’ve been having this error for a good while now, and it seems to be just a visual error, since I’m not noticing any problems and I can open, work and save my files just fine.
However it’s a bit annoying. This is happening with both the stable and dev versions of GIMP.
If you grep -F "%U" in your Gimp profile (likely ~/.config/GIMP/2.10) do you get any hits?
I’ll give this a try when I get home.
No, it just gives me a blinking cursor and nothing else.
Well, that capital %U is any files passed as parameters to Gimp as in the .desktop file

Is it possibly a language setting or maybe an association issue ? What type of Gimp? self-compiled / flatpack / snap / or from repo ?
I’m not sure what I shoud respond here…
The Arch package from the official extra repositories.
I was thinking along the lines of file or folder names containing accented characters and the association somehow failing. Otherwise, very strange.
