Hi there,

anybody facing the same problem? As I can't log in to scourceforge (" Logins to SourceForge.net are currently disabled."), I thought that I'd ask if someone has an idea what could be wrong:

When I try to start inkscape 0.44 it crashes with the following message (Inkscape 0.43 works ok):

************************************************************************

*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x086143b0 ***

Emergency save activated! Emergency save completed. Inkscape will close now. If you can reproduce this crash, please file a bug at www.inkscape.org with a detailed description of the steps leading to the crash, so we

can fix it.

************************************************************************

This happens no matter if I build from scratch, use an autopackage or a binary from linux packages.

Here'a gdb backtrace:

************************************************************************

warning: Cannot initialize thread debugging library: unknown thread_db

error '22

          '
