When eeschema attempts to autosave a schematic that hasn't been saved before, an assertion (common/basicframe.cpp:656) fails. Here's a patch that works around that.
I call this a workaround rather than a fix because I'd rather autosave still work for things that don't have a filename yet, but that has to be done more carefully. It would require a check at startup for a backup file saved to a predetermined location (ideally somewhere within either /tmp or ~/.kicad on Linux, and the equivalent locations on other systems). -- Chris
