Tested on Ubuntu 9.04
Start an xterm (or other terminal)
In the Terminal:
Create a Folder for xfig
mkdir xfig
change into that folder
cd xfig
download the xfig source
apt-get source xfig
download tools/libraries necessary for xfig
apt-get build-dep xfig
change into the source folder
cd xfig-*
change into the folder for the patches
cd debian/patches
download the patch posted three posts up
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26764274/25_rulers_overflow_fix.dpatch
add patch to the list of patches to be applied
echo 25_rulers_overflow_fix.dpatch >> 00list
change back to the main folder
cd ../..
compile
fakeroot debian/rules binary
the new packages are in the xfig folder
cd ..
install the new packages
sudo dpkg -i xfig*.deb
You now have a patched xfig that no longer crashes at that point
