In trying to launch tagtool from the shell I get:

christer@macbook:~$ tagtool
I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/christer/.tagtoolrc"

** (tagtool:6263): WARNING **: Failed to read preferences file
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

So I thought I'd try and fool it and create an empty rc file..

christer@macbook:~$ touch .tagtoolrc
christer@macbook:~$ tagtool
/home/christer/.tagtoolrc:1: parser error : Document is empty

^
/home/christer/.tagtoolrc:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found

^

** (tagtool:6284): WARNING **: Failed to read preferences file
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Is it simply a matter of not having a default preferences file or is there more to it?
