Hi,
This is actually impossible to do on a Mac build. On a Mac, when you open a File you are simply opening a new window in the same Sigil.app while not closing anything. You can have multiple open ebooks on a Mac with a single instance of the Sigil.app. Think of the Microsoft Word with multiple open docx files at the same time.
Both Linux and Windows are different in that way. We could of course easily make Windows and Linux work the same way as Mac does but just have not bothered.
So I simply get a new copy of the ebook in another window which I can easily close with no problems.
Sorry, but perhaps DiapDealer can help that bug down as I won't be able to recreate it on a Mac.
Thanks,
KevinH

Here are the steps to reproduce the crash with the Linux version:
1. Start Sigil by double-clicking this epub that crutledge posted today.
2. Enable Preview by pressing F10. (Activate Book View mode, if you haven't already done so.)
3. Select all images and delete them.
4. Open the same file via the File menu (click Discard).
Sigil will crash while re-opening the eub. (Sigil won't crash if Code View mode is activated.)
The official 64bit Windows version crashes in the same way, but I had to repeat the procedure. I.e. I loaded crutledge's epub, activated Book View and the Preview window, deleted all images (without a crash), re-opened the same file and deleted again all images. When I tried to re-open the same file one more time Sigil crashed.
(The Windows version won't crash either, if Code View mode is enabled.)
