Forget about comment #2, the -dbgsym package seems to be broken and does not yield a better bug report. But o my surprise today I could not start gthumb anymore, but got the same problem as you. I tracked the problem down: gthumb crashes because it can't read the comments generated by a newer version of gthumb (more specifically, it tries to read the "format" tag of the comment xml file, but gthumb 2.11.x uses a "version" tag instead). If you don't mind losing comments you might have attached to the pictures, please rename (or remove) the .comment folder in the respective picture folder, this fixed the problem for me. Please report whether this also works for you.
