Bug#563523: freecad: Crash while trying to draw rectangle

[Torquil Macdonald Sørensen]

Package: freecad
Version: 0.9.2646.4-1
Severity: important

While trying to draw a rectangle in freecad, I get a lot of these error messages:

.
.
.
AttributeError: Rectangle instance has no attribute 'snap'
<type 'exceptions.AttributeError'>
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/freecad/Mod/Draft/Draft.py", line 1059, in action

File "/usr/lib/freecad/Mod/Draft/Draft.py", line 338, in getPoint
point = snapPoint(target,point,args["Position"],args["CtrlDown"])
File "/usr/lib/freecad/Mod/Draft/Draft.py", line 198, in snapPoint
target.snap.coords.point.setValue((newpoint[2].x,newpoint[2].y,newpoint[2].z))

target.snap.coords.point.setValue((newpoint[2].x,newpoint[2].y,newpoint[2].z))
AttributeError: Rectangle instance has no attribute 'snap'

Then it crashes with the following message, written with a red colour in the 
terminal:

AttributeError: Rectangle instance has no attribute 'snap'
Running the Python command 'Draft_Rectangle' failed:
