Comment 13 for bug 805238

Backport reverted in r9969, needs more investigation:

Current trunk crashes when editing text with empty font family created with 0.48.x r9964. Unlike trunk, stable 0.48.x does not seem insert the default fallback font name, but leaves the font family undefined:

       style="font-size:40px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;line-height:125%;letter-spacing:0px;word-spacing:0px;fill:#000000;fill-opacity:1;stroke:none;font-family:;-inkscape-font-specification:;font-stretch:normal;font-variant:normal"
