Crash saving file in edgy

Bug Description

This is in inkscape 0.44-1ubuntu1, when trying to save a file

First I encountered the message "error accessing 'file:///home/oem/drawing.svg': File not found", and clicked ok.

The current folder is blank (an unusual state), and I then just typed "test" in the filename box (with append default extension ticked by default), and then hit save.

Then inkscape died and apport took over.

So to reproduce:
* With a relatively fresh Edgy Install (alternate, OEM)
* Install Inkscape
* Open Inkscape
* Add at least one element (otherwise you wont be able to save it)
* Click save (in menu or toolbar, doesn't matter)
* Click ok when you see the above message.
* Type any name into the Name box
* Click Save

Just to confirm that if I do select a save location, there is no crash. That save location is not remembered, and this also may be an issue to do with default save paths. However, even then, it should be an error dialog at worst, and not an outright crash.

I see the "File not found error", but I do not see it crash. (This is with Edgy Beta).

I have done a Dist upgrade to my Edgy install.
I attempted to reproduce with the steps above, and still see the "error accessing 'file:///home/oem/drawing.svg': File not found" message.

Now having not saved it yet, ever, should it really produce this message every time?

I press Ok, and then type in the name and save and it no longer crashes.
So I am happy to close this, but I think I will file a bug on that error message as it is a little silly and annoying.
