I've just built this for debian (didn't manage to build 1.0.2 at all or 1.0.3
in a timely manner due to tech probs, which turn out to be something odd with
nfs claiming files don't exist when they do).

Anyway. Aven segfaults if you try to open something that isn't a .3d file (eg
a .svx file or a Debian .dsc file). If you run it on the same file from the
command line then it pops up a window telling you it's not a valid 3d file
and then opens it's main window OK.

Version 1.0.1 does not suffer this problem, correctly saying 'bad 3d image
file'.

Looks like some room for improvement here. I'm inclined not to upload this
release to replace the 1.0.1 currently in Debian unless we think this serious
flaw is outweighed by the other imporovements.

The 1.0.3 I've built won't install (looks like NFS aggro again). I'll try and
see which version this proba actually appeared at.
