While I typically agree that SuSE wouldn't normally package a core
piece of the distro with a problematic piece of software, I've also
seen this type of behavior with 2.0pre from Ubuntu as well.  The
2.0pre version just seems very brittle.  I changed back to 1.1.3 after
realizing that 2.0pre was blowing up quite frequently when opening or
saving 1.1.3 versions or MSO formats.  I saw enough value to upgrade
when 2.0 releases.  Hopefully it will seem like less bloat by then,
though.
