Bug Description

I wish I had more specifics - but this is an INTERMITTENT bug. (But when it happens - it happens consistently). So here's a recipe to reproduce:

1. Open enclosed SVG
2. Go to: http://hofpodcast.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads///P9160425.jpg
3. View this image an "copy" it into your paste-buffer (I did this with Google Chrome 41.0.2272.118 Running on Window 7 - 64 Bit)
4. Paste the image into the open doc on Inkscape.
5. Kaboom

I am running Inkscape 0.91 r13725
Windows 7
64 Bit

Combined memory ~11M - total ~15M

- could you try running Inkscape from a DOS prompt like this:
C:\Program Files\Inkscape>inkscape
- this may allow you to see any error messages that are generated.

- also, just to confirm, did you install the 32 bit version of Inkscape or 64 bit, .msi or .exe?

Nothing from the command window. But I did figure out the folowing:

I installed: inkscape-0.91-x64.msi which I assume is the 64-bit version.

I was able to get a debug message:

Unhandled exception at 0x0000000077C98E5D (ntdll.dll) in inkscape.exe:
0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x0000000000030F18.

I don't have any debug symbols or anything - it didn't show any more of a
stack trace or anything. When I click "Show Dissasembly" - the Windows
debugger crashes :(

Does it only crash when pasting the image, or also when saving the image locally first, and then inserting it via 'File > Import' (please test both import options ('embedded' or 'linked') - pasting from clipboard always embeds).

Just tried it. I opened the SVG file and tried downloading [to a local
file] and then importing the same bitmap as a "link". Worked with no
problem. Then (without closing the SVG) I tried importing the same file as
an "embed" - worked with no problem.

I then copied and pasted the (same) image from the web browser to the SVG -
immediate crash.

I can confirm this problem in inkscape .91. Happens mostly when pasting from a browser like firefox, but sometimes also from paint. Import works fine.

I think this bug might be a special case (and a duplicate) of https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1467103 :

*Pasted* images are transformed into data:image/png so its filetype is png, while linking or embedding it stills considers it's a jpeg image (which it is).

Two different filetypes triggers 1467103 => crash

@Mc - Not sure it's exactly the same bug. In this case, it's mostly related to the clipboard, and the error message is different.
