I'm using inkscape 0.43 although I still have the issue I previously explained by email however I caught a reproducible error. A segmentation fault hapenned and saved my yet unsaved work as a file, which I'm sending attached. Whenever I open it I get ** (inkscape:11209): WARNING **: Format autodetect failed. The file is being opened as SVG.
but still it opens OK.
It is because you have not given the extension svg in the filename. I saved your file as test.svg and checked. Details:
$ inkscape /tmp/test.svg
Opens without any message
$ mv test.svg test $ inkscape /tmp/test
** (inkscape:2372): WARNING **: Format autodetect failed. The file is being opened as SVG.
Go to Text then Text and Font. Bumm... Segmentation Fault. :-|
Nothing happened here on my debian sarge system.
