GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 666756
Certain SVG files created by Inkscape cause crash

Created attachment 204132 [details] Inkscape created svg that causes the crash. The attached SVG file causes gnome-shell, nautilus and eog to crash when they try to view it. The gnome-shell one is particularly nasty, as if I search for something unrelated this SVG file was coming up as a result after the first letter and I had to switch to another tty to kill Xorg and get back to the login screen. In order for the crash to occur, the linked jpeg file has to exist, so will need to be replaced with an existing file to reproduce this.
Created attachment 204133 [details] Backtrace from gdb with debug symbols installed. I should also add that I'm running Ubuntu 11.10, 64 bit.
I can reproduce this with version 2.34.1 of librsvg from the git repository but not with the current master (af4e05f890cbe93d61d4e4a52f037e375d3126c4) or 2.35.1. So it looks like it was fixed some time between those versions.
