>From the backtrace in comment #5, this is crashing in sp_repr_do_read while reading in the preferences file.
The backtrace appears to be crashing during the garbage collection setup for Inkscape::XML::SimpleDocument, in the call to GC_malloc(256). I think we'd need to know more specific steps to reproduce this. A copy of a preferences file on a system experiencing this specific crash (i.e. that shows the same gdb backtrace as in #5) would be useful. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/628968 Title: Inkscape Crashes in Inkscape::Preferences::_loadDefaults To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/628968/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
