Inkscape crashes when I use LaTeX formula extension

[fabio.hipolito]

When I introduce LaTeX formulas (Extensions/Render/LaTeX formula) in in some files, such as the file attached, inkscape crashes.

Below follows the terminal output when I run inkscape normally and with dgb (please let me know if you need anything else)

this is another duplicate of the known regression in Inkscape 0.48.3.1:

Hello and thank you for your quick reply.

I followed the work around proposed in the other bug

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/inkscape/+bug/944077/comments/11

but the problem persists and inkscape continues to crash every time I run the

Is this the same bug? Should write the gdb output again?

Sorry, I did not follow correctly the work around. It solves the problem.
Thank you.
