Description Guenter Mistlberger 2007-03-08 16:45:17 UTC

When I want to change the unit settings within xfig, it crashes with the 
"SIGSEGV signal trapped" output in the terminal.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.start xfig
2.select edit > set units ...
3.crash

Actual Results:  
$ xfig
Warning: Actions not found: StartScroll

xfig3.2.4: SIGSEGV signal trapped
xfig: figure empty or not modified - exiting
Aborted

Expected Results:  
open a window with the possibility to set units.

I am however able to pass on the "-metric" option via command line to xfig.
Sometimes xfig also crashes with the same error when selecting the "Global settings" button.
