It has been much improved, but bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/284546 is still there, though it does not appear quite as easy as before.
Couldn't the THROW_CONTINUITYERROR at line 355 in src\2geom\path.cpp be commented out, as suggested long time ago. That would help a lot.
We should definitely not remove THROW_CONTINUITYERROR ! It means there is a real problem that Inkscape/2geom should not ignore. I think what causes the problem in this case is adding a line segment with 'invalid' points (like infinity). Perhaps adding a simple check for that in the callygr tool will fix this issue.
Ciao, Johan
Yes, it's a dirty workaround I suggested, but it works. I commented it out and have been using it like that for 8 months now with only minor problems. These minor problems consist in, that when I calligraphic-trace and move the pen too slow, the trace is aborted, but without the crash.
I don't have time to try to look for a way to fix it (for the next week or so). I hope somebody else is trying.
