Description Duane Johnson 2003-09-12 23:33:46 UTC
After emerging AbiWord 1.99-5, running the AbiWord-2.0 executable results in the
following error message:

AbiWord-2.0: image.c:1961: DestroyImageInfo: Assertion `image_info->signature ==
0xabacadabUL' failed.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. I had previously installed the default stable version that comes with Gentoo
1.4 (abiword-1.0.6-r1).

2. I used "ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge abiword" to compel emerge to install the
development version (release candidate) in order to have both versions installed
concurrently.

3. Executing the program "AbiWord-2.0" causes the assertion failure.
