LibreCad crashes when I attempt to open a .dxf file from "File" > "Open."  I am able to open the files from a right click drop down menu and everything seems to work fine, that is, unless I need to open a different file and need to use the "File" > "Open." method.  Then it crashes ...  everytime.  My OS is Ubuntu 12.04 and LibreCad version is 2.0.0beta5.  I noted the problem today after not using LibreCad for several months.  I uninstalled and reinstalled from the Ubuntu repository without correction and so then enabled the PPA for daily builds and updated the system in hopes of correcting but it did not. I ran LibreCad from the console with the following result:
gee@magnolia:~$ librecad --debug 2> lc.log
Aborted (core dumped)
LibreCad also crashes if I attempt to import a block.  I don't know where to go from here to try to solve the problem.  Any help is appreciated.
