Opening a DXF didn't work, Inkscape crashed instead

Summary:

Inkscape told me to write a bug report, so here I am, Love this software.

I selected Gcode compatible point import, idk what that is but I wanted to use this for a cam so gcode something sounded right.

it warned me: "$PDMODE is ignored. A point is displayed as normal.", and said a script didn't receive an error, but what I get might not be what I want.

Steps to reproduce:

  • open DXF with Inkscape
  • use gcodetools
  • maybe you have to have my hardware, idk.

What happened?

crash

What should have happened?

not crash

Thank you
