When I start dasher (4.7.0) under ubuntu 8.04 it unexpectedly closes if I go to edit > preferences, and click on custom (to change alphabet direction).

Thanks, however, I was wondering how we can be sure that this bug is
fixed if the radio buttons are deactivated. The application always
crashed as soon as I changed alphabet orientation using those radio
buttons, so I'm just wondering whether this bug should remain active
or not, because it sounds like there's no way to tell right now.

However, I will leave that decision up to you. At the moment I do not
use Dasher, but might use it again in the future.

Thanks for looking after this!

well clicking on "custom" doesn't crash, you just can't do anything useful after clicking on it. If the buttons get reactivated and cause crashes I will reopen this bug or file a new one.
