Debug Policy

The Debug Policy tells GIMP what you want to do if GIMP encounters a problem. You have four choices:

Debug warnings, critical errors and crashes

  This is the most intrusive option. Usually only used when trying to find a specific bug. This starts the debugger for any kind of crash, error or warning.

Debug critical errors and crashes

  Start debugging when GIMP encounters a crash or a critical error.

Debug crashes only

  Only start debugging when GIMP encounters a crash.

Never debug GIMP

  Whatever happens, the debugger will never be started.

Effective debugging is only possible if you have gdb or lldb installed.
