As a quick workaround you can start gimp with the -no-fonts command-line option but of course you will not be able to use the text tool then. These crashes should go away as soon as you update to a newer version of fontconfig (>= 2.2.0).
Known Problems¶ GIMP crashes when scanning fonts There have been reports of crashes at startup when GIMP scans your font directories. For this reason, you are advised to search the specific documentation of your operating system distribution before updating your font configuration. They sometimes provide an easier interface to manage your fonts instead. Note though that since it is such a widespread system, modern desktops environments such as GNOME or KDE, or other distribution software, may overwrite your font configuration file.
If you use a very raw operating system though, or if you simply want to know more, you may want to have a look at the Fontconfig User Manual to create or edit your font configuration file.
