Hi, Not sure if everyone has heard of this: http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20061002#donation Also, I think the IBM PPC donation is newsworthy - someone could probably write an inkscape.org article about these...

failure opening svg's on debian etch
by ben lipkowitz 03 Oct '06

03 Oct '06

Hello, I recently installed Debian Etch on my laptop, then removed all of the Gnome stuff and installed KDE and Inkscape. For some reason inkscape cannot open or import svg images (though raster formats work fine, and inkview can load svg's) and it fails with the error: (inkscape:25435): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: gnome_vfs_uri_is_local: assertion `uri != NULL' failed which is the same as in [ inkscape-Bugs-1363390 ] (at http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=13947179 ) The bug fix doesn't provide much information regarding what the problem was or how to fix it. I am using: Inkscape 0.44.1 (Sep 25 2006) libgnomevfs2-0 2.14.2-2+b1 libgnomevfs2-c 2.14.2-2 But the problem existed in earlier versions also - I didnt think to write down the old version numbers before I upgraded. Any help appreciated! -fenn

Quad PPC from IBM
by Kees Cook 02 Oct '06

02 Oct '06

IBM donated a quad-proc PPC for Inkscape testing. I've finally overcome the weird console problems it was having, and got Ubuntu Dapper installed on it. Bryce and I are going to get Crucible running on it shortly, but until then (and after), anyone who's interested in getting an account on it, please email me your SSH pub key and desired account name. Doing "make -j6" it took about 3min40sec to do a full recompile. :) -- Kees Cook @outflux.net

Cairo changes breaking build
by Jon A. Cruz 02 Oct '06

02 Oct '06

I've hit problems with the Cairo changes from r13107 breaking the build. Specifically, PANGO_GLYPH_EMPTY is undeclared, as is PANGO_GLYPH_UNKNOWN_FLAG. I have cairo 1.2 and pango1-dev 1.10.0 The one value appears to have been added to Pango 1.11.4, and then hidden in 1.11.6. There are also several other warnings that need to get cleaned up at some point, but the build breakage is the main problem for me. I'd hack something in, but I'm not sure of the "proper" fix in this case.

We'll mainly need some widget to wrap a spinbutton in a menuitem. Then we can finish a transition to stock GTK menubars and get exactly that functionality.

Two of the errors were indeed spawned by paramnotebook.cpp. I fixed the bug (something with tooltips). After quite a search: the third error is not caused by my code but by event-log.cpp. Newing SPDocumentPrivate() causes the error => Member 'Inkscape::EventLog event_log;' causes the error => and finally "_event_list_store ( Gtk::TreeStore::create(_columns) )" is the cause of the error. The code should be changed to create the TreeStore only if there is a UI which can actually call Undo/Redo. Because I am not familiar with the EventLog (mental proposed a better name: 'HistoryLog'), I hope the author can look into this. I tried to correct it but it started becoming a nasty hack; I gave up for now. Side note: we should make it clear to windows developers to enable the console. I vote for enabling it standard in the SVN's makefiles, and disable it for the pre-compiled distributions. I think people who are keen enough to compile their own Inkscape can also cope with a console screen. This should prevent some of the errors being missed. However, since I never use inkscape from the commandline, I still would have missed some of the errors caused by my code... Now back to work on the axonometric grid :-) - Johan
