A freshly installed focal system doesn't come with gimp and installing it from apt and runnning it works just fine. On a system that experiences this undefined symbol, uninstalling gimp (and autoremove) and reinstalling it fixes the problem. I'm not sure why this fixes the issue because libgegl is the same versions installed previously.. and the same gegl packages get installed.

The snap runs just fine (although there is a GeglBuffer leak: https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/gimp-geglbuffer-leak/15732).
