BEAST crashes upon creation of new synthesis networks?
BEAST uses the GnomeCanvas Library to display synthesis networks. That library has a malicious redrawing bug in versions up to (including) 2.2.0.1 triggering an assertion if the code is compiled with debugging output, which looks like this GnomeCanvas error: GnomeCanvas-ERROR **: file gnome-canvas.c: line 3509 (gnome_canvas_request_update_real): assertion failed: (canvas->idle_id != 0) aborting… This issue got fixed with version 2.2.0.2, so users encountering crashes with BEAST upon creation of synthesis networks will need to upgrade their GnomeCanvas Library to at least 2.2.0.2.
