      That all looks good, but I can't tell if any of that is from Muon. The goal would be to find something under the covers of that mysterious Muon dialog. Uh, anything interesting in /var/log/dpkg.log ?

        This is the record from this afternoon when I --reinstalled gimp from the CLI.

          That all looks good. I'm flummoxed as to why Muon can't handle this.

            Maybe this sheds some useful light on my problem.
            Code:
            paul@tanagra:~$ dpkg --purge --simulate gimp
dpkg: could not open log '/var/log/dpkg.log': Permission denied
dpkg: dependency problems prevent removal of gimp:
 gimp-gmic depends on gimp (>= 2.6).

dpkg: error processing package gimp (--purge):

            Oops. Here, with sudo:

            paul@tanagra:~$ sudo dpkg --purge --simulate gimp

              Apparently you need to purge gimp-gmic first, then.

                That works. I purged gimp-gmic.
                Code:
                sudo dpkg --purge --simulate gimp
                Now reports:
                Code:
                paul@tanagra:~$ sudo dpkg --purge --simulate gimp

Would remove or purge gimp (2.8.10-0ubuntu1) ...
paul@tanagra:~$
                However, Muon Package Manager still says it can't remove or purge gimp (same message I posted earlier). Odd.

                  Well, go ahead and actually try it as root and without a simulation run using dpkg.

                      Very good. Now... does sudo find / -iname '*gimp*' find any leftover config files and whatnot?

                          Apparently you've at least once run Gimp as root. I'd suggest deleting the directory /root/.gimp-2.8. Also you might check to see if any files anywhere in your home directory are mistakenly owned by root: find /home/$USER -user root

                            I don't remember ever running Gimp as root (launching it from the CLI with sudo), but I did, this evening, remove /root/.gimp-2.8:

                            Code:
                            sudo su -
cd /root
rm -r .gimp-2.8

                              Returning to this a bit late, I realize... So after all this purging and rm-ing, have you been able to get Gimp to run properly?

                                No, so I called in a Roman Cathlic Excorsist and had Gimp removed. It is no more, and I'm using Krita. I have no clue why Gimp began behaving as it was.
