Hi Glen! Thank you very much for your bug report. This bug looks like a bug we've seen a lot of users experience lately. I believe it is caused by a bug in the gtk2 package, not Inkscape. We have a fix for the text-tool issue in Inkscape addressed by an update to gtk2 which I believe will resolve your problem (we've had several testers confirm it resolved text tool crashes in Inkscape for them) To get the fix, run the following command as root: yum update gtk2 --enablerepo=updates-testing Let me know how it goes! And thanks again for the bug report.
Yep, fixed me right up. Thanks!

The gtk2 update fixed the problem for me, too.
