Bug Description

Binary package hint: dia

1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Release: 14.04

2) apt-cache policy dia
dia:
  Installed: 0.97.2-15ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.97.2-15ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 0.97.2-15ubuntu1 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) What is expected to happen via a terminal:
cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dia/+bug/449997/+attachment/817543/+files/blue_box.dia && dia --nosplash blue_box.dia

File > Export > Visio XML Format (*.vdx) > open the exported file and it looks exactly the same.

4) What happens instead is the box is broken into segments. Each segment has its own border, ruining the original appearance of the box.

Also reporting a similar issue, after exporting from DIA into .vdx format, and then opening the very same file again in DIA. It appears distorted (text is offset in relation to the class box icon), and the class box in itself is no longer a singular object, but is instead split up in the lineobjects making up the original box class icon.

Ubuntu 10.04 AMD 64-bit
DIA 0.97.1, installed via synaptic
