Hm, can you send me the full output of "strace inkscape" and "ltrace
inkscape"? Perhaps also the core file, but for that it is better to
compile inkscape wit debugging symbols. Do you want to do this yourself
or should I provide a suitable package? Is your system plain unstable 
or do you have some libs from experimental installed? I got it
right that you start inkscape without any parameters? Which window
manager do you use and which terminal emulator?

I have no real idea right know, especially since inkscape quits without
saying anything. Normally it catches sigsegv, does an emergency save and
asks you to inform the developers.

Thanks for your efforts,

Wolfi
