We are sorry - it is a bug in the therion. It is caused by "line section" symbol, probably there is some pathology there (zero length line?), which is not handled properly. But we are not able to fix it without seeing the therion code, that generates this error.
Thanks, I found the problem by inserting scraps one at a time and then commenting blocks within the one bad scrap.
It would be great, if you could send us that part of the code.
For you debugging pleasure... the bad 'line section' was: line section -close on 344.0 798.0 348.0 803.0 373.0 817.0 373.0 817.0 smooth off 373.0 817.0 378.0 823.0 393.0 823.0 408.0 823.0 424.0 820.0 424.0 820.0 smooth off 449.0 798.0 480.0 779.0 510.0 773.0 510.0 773.0 542.0 771.0 553.0 770.0 564.0 769.0 601.0 765.0 601.0 765.0 smooth off 601.0 765.0 623.0 765.0 627.0 766.0 631.0 767.0 682.0 750.0 682.0 750.0 smooth off 619.0 755.0 512.0 757.0 440.0 761.0 424.0 765.0 399.0 763.0 367.0 749.0 337.0 733.0 355.0 752.0 376.0 781.0 377.0 792.0 364.0 801.0 364.0 801.0 340.0 793.0 344.0 798.0 endline Thanks again, Simeon

I recently picked up a project I started working on with therion 0.2.17 and installed 0.3.4. When I try to compile I get lots of errors of the form shown below. Can anyone suggest where I should look to fix this?
