Which linux is it this time. (I looked at a 'live' knoppiux usb and not a lot of joy with either gimp_gmic_qt or krita)
I never have any problems with Gimp in kubuntu and gimp_gmic_qt crashing. There can be problems when using an old version of gmic and updating. The gmic syntax often changes and can break some of the filters, particularly in the testing section. From a couple of weeks ago gmic version 3.0.0 includes the 'community' filters (aka update300.gmic file) in the code. Download, install and no need to update. (except of course you might have to update, to get a specific fix)
If using an older gmic version I recommend backing up the updatexxx.gmic file before running the update function. I have some old update files archived just in case.
The gmic gradient from line. You have more success than me getting this out of krita however it does look like the destination is 'hard-wired' Running this in my Gimp 2.10.22 appimage puts the ggr file in the regular Gimp user profile. No workaround.
