Bug Description

Binary package hint: xfig

Intending to draw a circle/ellipse in xfig causes crash of the application in Ubuntu 10.04 beta2.

At the moment I place the pointer to start to draw a circle, xfig crashes and immediatelly kills the X server as well and drops the user to the gdm login window.
