Description Mickael Istria CLA 2019-09-02 07:03:52 EDT
On my machine, Gimp is installed with `flatpak`.

From Project Explorer, I go to some image file and then right-click > Open With... > External Editors > GNU Image Manipulation Program.
Gimp doesn't open and I see in the error stream of Eclipse IDE:
```
(Eclipse:16297): Gtk-WARNING **: 12:57:49.473: Could not load a pixbuf from icon theme.
This may indicate that pixbuf loaders or the mime database could not be found.
error: '/home/mistria/git/org.eclipse.epp.packages/packages/org.eclipse.epp.package.common/splashscreen_eclipse_ide-02.jpg' is not a flatpak command. Did you mean ' Manage installed applications and runtimes'?

See '/usr/bin/flatpak --help'
```

Mat, did you look at this one?

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
