Hello,

I dragged a png file on scribus window after opened an empty 
pictureframe. Scribus crashed immediately.
here is some strace and gdb output:

ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [32])                = 0
read(3, "\241 \223\225\34\0 \3\372\0\0\0\v\0@\1\0\0\0\0\326\2\352"..., 
32) = 32

error, qt_xclb_wait_for_event recursed

[1]+  Done                    strace scribus

Here is the output of gdb:

gdb scribus
...
(gdb) run

(no debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols 
found)...QClipboard: internal error, qt_xclb_wait_for_event recursed

I used the latest developer version from yesterday (not cvs tree), and 
applied the patch from Simon Munton. 
Because I'm unfamiliar to the patch program I used it this way:
patch  --verbose  -p 1  -b  -r rejected.file scribus/plugins/
scriptplugin/cmdvar.h python.patch

Please let me know if more strace output is needed.

I don't know if this problem is specific to my installation of qt and 
kde. It is based on the unstable distribution of debian.

TIA

bye
