Inkscape crashes when editing text with different properties

[a09uj]

Hi all,
I'm encountering a problem with Inkscape that seems similar to Bug #167021
but it happens when changing text attributes when different words, with different properties, are selected.

The steps needed to reproduce the unexpected behaviour are:
  * Open the attached "Report.svg" file with Inkscape 0.46
  * Select the first line of the text in the first text box
  * Change some attribute such as the Font Size or the Font Color

Inkscape will then crash with the dialog:
"Inkscape encountered an internal error and will close now."
or
"Inkscape encountered an internal error and will close now.
Automatic backups of unsaved documents were done to the following locations:
        /tmp/inkscape-"

When running Inkscape 0.46 from console I get a bunch of:
"(inkscape:4309): Gtk-WARNING **: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated"
by the way Gtk warnings never were a real problem.

I debugged an Inkscape crashing session, the output has been attached to the Bug along with the SVG file needed to reproduce it. I'm running Inkscape Inkscape 0.46 (Oct 24 2008) on a Ubuntu 8.10 box Linux 2.6.27-14-generic #1 SMP i686

We are actually getting ready to release 0.47 in the near future. If you could check to see if this is reproducible for you with a newer build that would be greatly helpful.

A pre-release for 0.47 for 32bit 8.10 can be found at https://launchpad.net/~inkscape.testers/+archive/ppa/+build/1074613/+files/inkscape_0.47~pre0-0ubuntu1~8.10_i386.deb

It's not the most recent pre-release, but it is MUCH newer than 0.46. Please test and report back.

ScislaC: I installed Inkscape 0.47 and started it with GDB, the problem still persist.
I used the same file as the previous post, selected the first row of text in the boxed text
changed font size and then Inkscape crashed istantly.

Thank you for checking against a newer version, I just confirmed with r21886 and I'm attaching a full backtrace for it.
