Hi All,
I've tried to reproduce this as I'm on Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS.
I built avogadro using avogadro-squared and the system qt (i.e. installed
with apt-get install qt-sdk) and then just fired up the binary (I didn't
set any BABEL_LIBDIR or BABEL_DATADIR environment variables as this didn't
seem to be needed).
I can't seem to reproduce that bug (i.e. I can paste coordinates from the
terminal into avogadro and it creates the molecules), however it keeps
crashing when I select and then try and copy at atom.
I've submitted a bug report here:
https://sourceforge.net/p/avogadro/bugs/660/
Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.
Best wishes,
Jens
