Comment 9 for bug 977938

Ok as far as I can see in my pacman.log (package manager's log), the Oxygen-gtk2 version I had installed when I reported the bug was 1.2.2-1.

I just checked with the stable Inkscape 0.48.3.1 :
the bug is still here BUT only if I open a new (blank) document, click 'create new layer' and cancel.
As soon as I add another layer, and then test again, I can't reproduce the bug, even if I delete the layer I just created afterwards.
I couldn't reproduce the bug in 'non-blank' svg files (tested with some of my realisations --> no problem).

The bug stack is also much smaller than it used to be :

Starting program: /usr/bin/inkscape
warning: Could not load shared library symbols for linux-vdso.so.1.
Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?

I'm currently building the latest bazaar version to do some more testing.
Will post the details soon.
