Segfault in openclipart dialog when openclipart.org is down

[Eric Marsden]

The openclipart.org web site is currently undergoing maintenance, and displays a stock "maintenance" web page for all requests.

Inkscape segfaults when searching for a drawing using the "Import from openclipart" dialog box, with the following message:

http://openclipart.org/media/feed/rss/happiness:8: parser error : EntityRef: expecting ';'
 type="text/css" href="http://www.openclipart.org/style.php?site=default&widgets
                                                                               ^
Emergency save activated!
Emergency save completed. Inkscape will close now.
If you can reproduce this crash, please file a bug at www.inkscape.org

Please provide information about your OS and Inkscape version (apparently you are using Inkscape 0.48.1).

Crash reproduced with Inkscape 0.48.1, 0.48.2 and 0.48+devel r10736 on Mac OS X 10.5.8 (i386)
The console message about the parser error only happens in Inkscape 0.48.1, not later versions, but Inkscape crashes with each of them:

Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory.
Reason: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at address: 0x00000000
0x0058b46f in Inkscape::UI::Dialog::FileImportFromOCALDialog::print_xml_element_names ()

Segmentation fault

Reproducible if I choose "import from openclipart", put in any search text and press "search" button.

Albeit openclipart.org is not down/maintenance, inkscape crashes.

Inkscape 0.48.3.1 r9886, Gentoo 64bit

openclipart.org is not down, but its feeds are currently broken (see also bug #989257):
