Bug Description

When trying to restore previously saved work [mywork.sto] Stopmotion crashes and vanishes.

System: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Version: stopmotion 0.7.2-1

Notes:
I have run apt-get update /reinstall (etc)
More than one file fails to Open (tried 3 different times)
The attempted STO file was imported to raspberrypi and opens/runs fine so problem seems not to file corruption.
Now need to fix unhappy eight year old :-(
Thanks.

I have .sto files from StopMotion 0.7.2-1 (debian package) saved in Unbuntu 12.04, I've just installed Unbuntu 14.04 and SM (the same version) crashes when I load this files. Is it a bug with trusty?

Fixed :-)

The issue is actually in libtar 1.2.20-3 in Ubntu 14.04, I downgraded it to 1.2.19-1 from saucy and everything works again.
