crash while editing arabic text

[Felipe "Juca" Sanches]

when editing an arabic text string, Inkscape crashes if a line-break is inserted in the middle of a ligature glyph.

The expected bevaiour would be to split the text into a couple of lines with the first line ending with the non-ligated glyph of the first ligature character and the other one in the beginning of the second line. And (of course!) not crashing Inkscape... :-)

This was the arabic text used for testing:

عربي

And these would be the expected results after line-breaking the first ligature (the one on the right, since arabic is a right-to-left script):

ع
ربي

or the second ligature (the one to the left):

عرب
ي

Note: I don't understand Arabic, so I don't know what the text above actually means, or if this kind of edit is really useful. But it should, at least not crash Inkscape (even if the user may be typing non-sensical text)!

Hi, could you provide an example of such an Arabic word? Also please provide information about your Inkscape version and operating system. Thank you!
