Steps to reproduce: 1) launch inkscape (default prefs, default new doc) 2) draw a rect 3) group it 4) open XML Editor 5) delete ID attribute of selected group 6) on-canvas, double-click the selection to enter the group 7) click on the rectangle to select it -> crash with current stable and trunk (backtrace from latest trunk attached) Please file a report in the bug tracker, thanks.

I'd be glad to provide a backtrace, but I fail to reproduce this crash - tried several times with r12753 as well as with latest r12755. Any additional step(s) required apart from these? 0) launch inkscape with default (new) prefs 1) draw rect 2) switch back to select tool (S) 3) group the rectangle (Ctrl+G) 4) open XML Editor (Shift+Ctrl+X) 5) delete 'id' attribute of selected group 6) enter group with double-click on selected group (or with <Esc> (return focus to canvas), Ctrl+Enter) 7) leave group with a double-click on empty canvas (or with Ctrl+Backspace) Regards, V

Could you post this as a real bug on launchpad with a full traceback so we can see? https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape BEst regards, Martin Owens

Inkscape dies with "terminate called after throwing > an instance of 'std::logic_error' \n what(): basic_string::_S_construct > null not valid" Since AFAICT no report had been filed about this crash, I reported it now myself: Bug #1257417 “trunk: Removing ID attribute from group (XML editor) causes crash (rev >= 10992)” <https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1257417> @Bryan - please comment in the report if I ommitted important information, and please file one yourself if you think the one just reported is not about what you experience with your highly customized set of preferences.
