Description Mick Sulley 2014-08-27 21:11:32 UTC 
When I try to export to a Dia shape file the program crashes. If I start it from command line I get the message 'segmentation fault'.  I can export to other formats OK.
If I try this with an empty sheet is seems to work OK, but putting anything on the sheet causes a segmentation fault.
Running Linux mint 17 Cinnamon and dia-normal 0.97.2

Please let me know if you need any further info or want me to try anything
Thanks
Mick

Please attach the file you use to crash Dia. Also the target directory might be of interest. The shape exporter uses the directory to construct the shape's name.
Just tested Dia 0.97.2 with Mint 17 and it works fine for me.

Comment 4 Mick Sulley 2014-08-27 23:03:20 UTC 
I repeated the test, created a new file which is just a box with the text 'Box1' inside.  
Saved as ~/Documents/Dia/Box1.dia
Select File > Export, File type = Dia shape file, ~/Documents/Dia/Box1.shape
Dia crashes
When I look in the directory it has created the shape file but no .png file

.dia and .shape files uploaded

Regards
Mick

Reproducible as per crash report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dia/+bug/1366610 .

Hans Breuer, that's by design of Launchpad. One would have to be a member of a group that has the permission to see it.
Comment 8 Hans Breuer 2014-09-08 09:07:09 UTC 
Reproduced with 0.97.2 on Linux Mint 17. It prints:

dia Bugs/#735552-Box1.dia 
*** Error in `dia-normal': double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x0a126518 ***
Aborted

Fixed with the recent Dia 0.97.3 release as bug 668587.

BTW: posting Launchpad private links does not look that useful to me. I can not see the bug with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dia but links in other bugs do work, e.g. bug 735214.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 668587 ***
Comment 9 Mick Sulley 2014-09-13 21:40:22 UTC 
Where can I get the fixed version?  Bother the repository and http://sourceforge.net have 0.97.2 and from what you have said I need 0.97.3

Thanks for your help
