compiled GIMP 2.0.5 crashes on text dialog

Hi,
I compiled gimp 2.0.5 on SuSE 9.0 and when trying to write some text into texttool dialog it crashes(whole GIMP) with SIGSEGV error on script-fu: wire_read() . Does anyone have an idea what problem can I have? Versions 2.0.0 and 2.0.3 worked perfectly.

(If needed I can post whole crash message.)

thnx Cornelius

if you read OSX: Gimp2 crashes when changing font, you will notice that I have the same problem.
It has been suggested that the problem is with freetype. I upgraded to freetype 2.1.9 and it seemed to work fine for a period of about 15 minutes, then crashed.

Hi,
ou I didn't read before asking :/
But I discussed this problem on #gimp too and the suggestion was similar. We found that the problem can be combination of old freetype and old pango. These libraries I don't have up-to-date so the problem can be here. I compiled back G2.0.3 till I'll upgrade libraries. thnx
