AMD64 stable Inkscape crashes on save dialog, activates emergency save function. Problem _possibly_ due to gtk+ 2.8.16 --> 2.10.6 upgrade, as inkscape worked fine before. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start inkscape. 2. Try to save something (an opened file, a new document etc.) through 'Save' or 'Save as' under the 'File' dialog. 3. Actual Results: Inkscape crashes and activates the emergency save function, as follows: user@machine ~ $ inkscape (inkscape:18813): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_file_system_unix_get_info: assertion `g_path_is_absolute (filename)' failed Gtk-ERROR **: file gtkfilechooserdefault.c: line 7772 gtk_file_chooser_default_should_respond): assertion failed: (path != NULL) aborting... Emergency save activated! Emergency save document locations: New document 1.2007_01_16_16_22_16.0 Emergency save completed. Inkscape will close now. If you can reproduce this crash, please file a bug at www.inkscape.org with a detailed description of the steps leading to the crash, so we can fix it.

Verified that the inkscape save dialog works fine after x11-libs/gtk+ downgrade to version 2.8.19.
I've found that the save dialog works also with the recent libgtk+, if the path is explicitly chosen by the user (i.e. specific location is chosen from the save dialog). I leave the bug with lower severity.

Created attachment 107249 [details] Backtrace of inkscape during save dialog crash (In reply to comment #3) > Reopen with a backtrace: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml > A backtrace is attached. I think the problem would be solved, if the inkscape save dialog opened with a default path (ex. $PWD, as in a lot of other GTK applications), also when linked to gtk+-2.10.x .
