Package: libcairo2 Severity: important PDF files created by Inkscape are causing Xelatex to crash. This happens when a figure includes gradients. The compilation process exits with the message: ** ERROR ** pdf_link_obj(): passed invalid object
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libcairo/+bug/1051939 As discussed in this thread, the error seems to appear for PDF file with broken references: http://tug.org/pipermail/xetex/2010-December/019653.html Such files seem to be fixed by running "pdftk". Steps to reproduce: Create a figure with a gradient in Inkscape and save it as PDF. Include this PDF in a latex document and try to compile it with xelatex.
