[Bug 1383863] Re: Choosing colors from palette crash

 

>  Any idea on how long it took you to run into the issue?
It take few second to fall into that issue. First opening of menu always work but second one usually fail. There is some very little chance that this will work more then two times. So in short if you would like to use more then two colors, Inkscape is completely useless on Ubuntu for last few months...

> And does it happen with any color palette, or with a specific one 
Inkscape allow to change color palette? Nice to known. Nerveless I use default settings. I really would like to use Inkscape to draw few colored lines, nothing more.

> Not reproduced on Windows XP
Yes, it is working fine on my computer with windows 7. I'm sure this bug is connected with GTK & Ubuntu...
