Is it working for you out there?
I had this same problem earlier this week. As I hadn't used Abiword for several days, quite a number of packages had been upgraded in the interim, so I don't know where the problem originated. I downloaded 0.7.5-1 and it segfaulted on me too. So I just recompiled the .deb from the source package and it works great now. Perhaps abiword uses some internal symbol(s) from some library and those changed? Or is there a better explanation? James
