Not sure if I'm having the exact same bug, but Inkscape hangs when editing text and the symptoms seem the same. This just started happening, worked fine on a clean install.
I first thought this happened because I made my own build of Inkscape 0.48.5.1 but it seems that it's not an Inkscape bug, but merely some conflict in python (this is me shooting in the dark).
Those last errors might give some hint on what's happening (if it is the same bug).
I can type around 35-40 letters or keyboard commands when the text input slows down to a crawl and eventually hangs the program. CPU usage is 0%, nothing is critically hanging, everything just stops. No output on console.
Kubuntu 14.04 amd64 with custom made build of Inkscape 0.48.5.1 or the 0.48.4 from Ubuntu's official repo.
