I know what the problem is but AFAIK it has been fixed with the latest
gmic_gimp. If you have a clean installation.

Go to this thread where you will find a replacement libcairo file

This about the whys and wherefores

Just a reminder, when you install Gimp 2.9.x it will migrate your old Gimp 2.8
profile resources including any old plugins that might/might-not work.

To clean up, rename your Gimp 2.8 profile (if you have one) to disable, delete
the existing Gimp 2.9 profile, start Gimp 2.9 to create a new default Gimp
profile.
