as far as I can tell, a patch was done on Aug 17 to solve bug 258761 https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/258761 . This was a crash in rev 19671, fixed in rev 19673.
Aha, so it didn't crash for me because I compiled 19743.
I urge the 2geom developers to please look into this and fix this "properly".
Also I'd like to remind them that we still have unsolved "non-continuous path" asserts. For example the crash when loading our own current about.svg:
glibmm-ERROR **: unhandled exception (type std::exception) in signal handler: what: lib2geom exception: Non-contiguous path (2geom/path.cpp:88)
This has been broken for too long, it discourages people who try to use SVN builds for testing. Myself, I somehow put up with the unstability most of the time, but from time to time I also have to go back to an old build to finish some work. Please fix this ASAP!
