Hi,

since a short while ago, applying a pattern to a path in the fill/stroke dialog has led to a crash. I have found out that this is caused by invalid path data in share/patterns/patterns.svg which was introduced in revision 16619. Namely, there are stray minus signs (without a number following them) at two places in the code, like this:

C -152.421,-34.897 -132.804,-34.567 -147.875,- L -150,-46.156 z

(notice the isolated minus sign in front of the L).

I committed a temporary "fix" by just inserting the value 999.999 for the missing coordinates (this makes it easy to find them in the file). Of course this messes up the patterns but I don't know the correct values for the missing coordinates. Bulia, since you committed the new patterns, could you have a look and properly correct them? BTW, were the paths created using Inkscape? In this case we should also find out why the invalid path data was produced in the first place.

P.S.: Note that there still is another bug related to patterns which leads to a crash when you want to edit patterns using their knotholder handles. I wanted to fix it but it was shadowed by the new crash so I couldn't work on it. I hope to resolve it as soon as possible.
