Riccardo,
I will rebuild in a minute. In the mean time I had added the update that
was suggested by Sebastian.
This is the result of the execution:
[edwin@ridcule ~]$ openapp GWorkspace
2013-02-15 09:41:42.493 GWorkspace[1612] thumbnaildir:
/home/edwin/GNUstep/Library/Thumbnails

"/home"; name = "/dev/mapper/vg_ridcule-lv_home"; type = ext4; }, {dir =
swap; name = "/dev/mapper/vg_ridcule-lv_swap"; type = swap; })
2013-02-15 09:41:45.356 fswatcher[1677] Connection became invalid

To exclude permission problems I ran as root with the following result:
[edwin@ridcule ~]$ su root
Password:
[root@ridcule edwin]# openapp GWorkspace
2013-02-15 09:42:22.507 make_services[1800] couldn't create

2013-02-15 09:42:22.620 GWorkspace[1738] unable to create the thumbnails
directory. Quiting now
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[root@ridcule edwin]#
I also tried to remove the directory Thumbnails and run GWorkspace
[edwin@ridcule Library]$ ls -l

It seems the directory has been created correctly.
Now I'll build the new version.
I'll report about it as soon as possible.
Kind regards
