The Gimp crashes by copying
Using icewm - and only icewm - the gimp crashes when copying a selection. It does not matter whether Ctrl-C or the menu is used for copying.
The following output appears on the console:
The program 'gimp' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 182033 error_code 3 request_code 18 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
(script-fu:4504): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: 23:24:09.010: script-fu: gimp_wire_read(): error
With KDE, XFCE, LxQt or Fluxbox this error does not occur.
The error is reproducible. It does not always occur with the first copy, but often with the second such action.
I tried it with big pictures 5893x2946 but not have this issue. Your version of IceWM? (icewm -V)

Have started it with valgrind and tried to reproduce the error. It did not occur. Even after frequent copying.
Then I started Gimp normally and even then the error did not occur anymore.
I will watch this. And report if it occurs again.
It may be due to a system update yesterday.
