inkscape crashes when copying object

[my]

1. open the attached file.
2. click on the figure, approximately in the middle of panel A; most of the fig gets selected
3. menu edit->copy
4. kaboom with following console msg:

The program 'inkscape' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 152486 error_code 3 request_code 18 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Debian stretch here, about dialog says inkscape 0.92.1 r15371.

similar to Bug 1589121 ?

It is similar though I have no clue if it's the same.

Reading other comments, my guess is that DE choice might matter for this bug (e16 wm here).

I would be happy to give you you backtrace or more dbug stuff but inkscape seems to be somewhat ignoring some standard ways.

If I run xtrace and trying to redirect X calls to intermediate layer to log X communication (the usual way is that you run something like "binary -display :9") inkscape does not recognize similar argument.
Running under gdb with --sync commandline arg and setting breakpoint on gdk_x_error does not work either.

Any other hint for the way you debug inkscape?

I had the same problem with inkscape on my friend Ubuntu 17.10.
The problem occured while I had turned doublecmd on.
My friend replaced doublecmd with krusader.

Same results under opensuse leap 42.3.
Reproducible crash as depicted above.
Inkscape 0.91 r13725

No doublecmd on my machine (ubuntu only?)

I will investigate this further, because I'm in a need for Inkscape actually.
Tried version 0.92 from suse build service/tumbleweed, but that one crashed right after loading, displaying no further reason why it did so.

Anyone compiled the sources w/ DEBUG?

On pc Debian testing x86-64, with master sources updated today, I don't reproduce this.
It's been fixed with https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/commit/d8d99efc5a827e7cedbc228fbfe536bc5e5ed9fb
