Bug Description

Inkscape will semi-randomly crash under normal use. I don't have a completely reliable way to reproduce it but it *seems* to be related to saving files. I.e. if I open a new file I haven't been able to reproduce it until after I've saved the file, but it requires some clicking around.

I'm attaching the backtrace; the crash itself seems to be happening in the qtcurve theme engine. But since I wasn't sure whether it's an inkscape bug or a qtcurve bug, I thought I'd report it here first... :)

Let me know if there's anything more I can do to help debug this...

Cheers,
-Toke

Could you please also report this upstream for qtcurve?

Recent crashes of this kind had been upstream bugs, e.g.
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340828
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343704
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=344061
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=344264
and seem to have been addressed in qtcurve git master according to the comments there; probably with
http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=qtcurve.git&a=commit&h=729661d8b6bb41df6b67c1e088e9c4714cea62eb

Hmm, tried installing the git version of qtcurve, and thus far I have been unable to crash inkscape. Yay! :)

Setting bug status to 'Triaged' for now - can be closed as 'Invalid' for project 'Inkscape' once a new upstream release of qtcurve is available.

Likely the crash reported here shares the same (or a related) underlying issue as the crashes with qtcurve reported earlier:
* Bug #1422479 “Crash under Plasma5 an qtcurve”
* Bug #1463877 “Inkscape crash on color palettes hover.”

Changed in inkscape:
status: New → Triaged
