RE: Unable to catch Gdk::PixbufError

[J B C Engelen ewi utwente nl]

Sorry for the long wait.

As it turns out, I am the only one with problems on Linux, so I'll leave
it at that.
On windows however, it is reproducable for us. We've found a comment
that might be of use:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=E1IUIrP-0002LO-KC%

Read the comment by Danny Smith (dannysmith) date: 2007-09-09 13:54.

If you'd like, you could take a look at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/173116 and add your comments,
they are more than welcome.

Thanks,
Johan
