I've been pondering this bug all day, I couldn't work out a safe way to test it without causing network errors. Instead I decided to build a FUSE file-system which can be set to break on certain calls. It will freeze just like this bad network effect and we can test any kind of bad IO handling fro

[Bug 785701] Re: Inkscape freezes at opening

Once the nfs is stale, you just can't start inkscape anymore (it hangs), so there's no possible action from the GUI in the preferences. I solved it by editing the file ~/.config/inkscape/preferences.xml, and set to 0 the variable maxrecentdocuments. The initial value is 36. Then inkscape starts c
