Version: @0.96.1@ What were you doing when the application crashed? Importing a Microsoft Visio file into Dia Diagram editor. The file being imported is a .vsd file as opposed to a .vsx file and may be the problem Distribution: Fedora release 7 (Moonshine) Gnome Release: 2.18.3 2007-07-02 (Red Hat, Inc) BugBuddy Version: 2.18.0 System: Linux 2.6.23.1-10.fc7 #1 SMP Fri Oct 19 15:39:08 EDT 2007 i686 X Vendor: The X.Org Foundation X Vendor Release: 10300000 Selinux: No Accessibility: Disabled GTK+ Theme: Clearlooks Icon Theme: Fedora Memory status: size: 73658368 vsize: 73658368 resident: 49029120 share: 22011904 rss: 49029120 rss_rlim: 4294967295 CPU usage: start_time: 1193998688 rtime: 432 utime: 373 stime: 59 cutime:0 cstime: 0 timeout: 0 it_real_value: 0 frequency: 100 Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/dia' (no debugging symbols found) Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".

Yes, VSD files are not supported yet. However, crashing the program is not the correct response. It doesn't seem to be something inherent to VSD files, as I can attempt to open it with no more bad effects than an error dialog. So if you can attach the VSD file, we can take a closer look.
the crash is (was) easily reproduced with any not supported file format. See: 2007-10-27 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org> * app/diagram.c(diagram_load) : don't kill the default diagram on import failure. Fixes bug #490546 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 490546 ***
