I was reading about the SBo scrip last night and there is some sketchy
stuff going on. They mentioned workarounds that are needed to solve
crashes, yet I didn't need to implement those, it works fine without the
workarounds.

Also, how recently did you download the source .deb? Apparently google
doesn't version their downloads so we have no way to guarantee that what
version I downloaded yesterday.  Can you grab me the version# from the help
menu so that I can rule out any funny business?

The SBo README says you needed to delete a font config file, and then make
a symlink to get it to run without crashes, but it seemed fine and I didn't
do either of those things. Did you make any of the changes outlined here?
