[PROBLEM]
Me, a happy Inkscape user, suddenly ran into a minor, but rather annoying problem. The system was Xubuntu Precise Pangolin (12.04.1 LTS, 64bit) and Inkscape version "0.48.3.1 r9886" from the default repositories.

The issue was as follows:

Every time I copied some object into the clipboard (hitting "Ctrl+C"), an error message popped up. At the top it said:

Inkscape has received additional data from the script executed. The script did not return an error, but this may indicate the results will not be as expected.

followed by the actual error message:

Code: Select all

UniConvertor failed:

Cannot list directory /home/pb/.uniconvertor:[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/pb/.uniconvertor'
ignoring it in font_path
Cannot list directory /home/pb/.uniconvertor:[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/pb/.uniconvertor'
ignoring it in font_path
I can't find font Sans. I'll use Slim instead
Fontsystem not yet implemented in UniConvertor. See /usr/share/doc/python-uniconvertor/README.Debian for more info

    rect = apply(Rect, a.font.TextBoundingBox(self.text, a.font_size, a))
TypeError: TextBoundingBox() takes exactly 3 arguments (4 given)

And after a few seconds more windows pop up, with the same text at the top, but this time it just says:

Code: Select all

No layers found

to be continued...
