In recent Ubuntu versions (13.04, 13.10) the Taxomomic Editor crashes frequently (KDE) or freezes for some time (GNOME). The crashes in KDE are due to a bug which affects all Eclipse indigo (3.7) RCP based applications. Even this bug is currently discussed in the affected developer communities: launchpad bug 1241101, eclipse bug 419729 the cause of this bug is still unclear. +
+In KDE the crash occurs when the oxygene_gtk is being used. Therefore switching to another GTK2 theme is known as a temporary solution. The GTK2 theme Raleigh has been sucessfully used as a replacement to the oxygen_gtk2. You can either configure it globally or set the environmanet variable GTK2_RC_FILES for the application to run.

The font size is usually too big in the default configration of this theme. In order to have a nicer font, you can create a file named .gtkrc-eclipse in your user home folder with the following content:
+style "eclipse" { + font_name = "Ubuntu 9" +} +class "GtkWidget" style "eclipse" ++
Finally, to launch the Editor, use following command line:

+ GTK2_RC_FILES=/usr/share/themes/Raleigh/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:~/.gtkrc-eclipse "/path/to/EDIT Taxonomic Editor/TaxonomicEditor"
