precompiled version of 0.91 for Linux
by john Culleton 14 Aug '14

14 Aug '14

Is there a precompiled version of 0.91 for linux--any version? I've tried pre0 and pre1, on slackware, Ubuntu and openSUSE. The errors vary, but glibmm seems to be the culprit. Second question: what version of glibmm are the developers using? It seems to work on Windows 7 using the precompiled version. But Windows really sucks when pulling illos off the screen. And the 0.91 main screen is significantly different from 0.48.5 Why is this a big deal? Well I am writing books on two applications, book covers and web pages, both using Inkscape. I don't want them to be instantly obsolete.

On the use of C++ exception handling
by Rodrigo B Almeida 12 Aug '14

12 Aug '14

Dear all, I've been investigating the use of C++ exception handling constructs in open-source C++ projects (including inkscape). Currently, I am conducting a survey on this subject and I would really appreciate if you could contribute to this research by answering a few questions. The survey is available on-line: https://pt.surveymonkey.com/s/exceptionHandling All the best, Rodrigo.

Status of 0.91 and a vote on the bug hunt!
by Bryce Harrington 12 Aug '14

12 Aug '14

With us now at the halfway milestone for the bug hunt, this is a good point to reflect on how the release is doing, and I'd like to hear your thoughts. In past releases we set a goal of 500 points worth of bugs; today we've hit 778, which is pretty amazing! We set a higher goal than usual due to the length of time since our last release, knowing that we probably needed to give more time than usual for QA and to get things stabilized. How do you feel we're doing? Do you feel Inkscape is solid enough that we could call it good on the bug hunt and proceed with the next stage of the release (perhaps with a select list of must-fix blocker bugs)? Or do you think the bug hunt is helping stimulate a lot of good bug work that we should continue? Or something else entirely? Give me your vote publically or privately and I'll make the appropriate course changes to get the release moving ahead. Bryce

0.48.5 and libsigc++-2.3.2
by Ken Moffat 08 Aug '14

08 Aug '14

Hi, I do some things at beyond linuxfromscratch ( http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/ ) and have recently started including 0.48.5 in my own builds. We have been using libsigc++-2.3.1 for some time (I guess that whoever added it did not realis it was a development version), so we went with 2.3.2. Unfortunately, that breaks inkscape-0.48.5. The specific change was announced at https://mail.gnome.org/archives/libsigc-list/2014-August/msg00000.html where it mentioned runtime errors for users who added their own visit_each overload. In fact, for 0.48.5 it broke the build, and the relevant message appeared to be : /usr/include/sigc++-2.0/sigc++/visit_each.h:169:64: error: cannot convert ‘const sigc::adaptor_functor<sigc::bound_mem_functor0<void, SPDesktop> >’ to ‘int’ in initialization /usr/include/sigc++-2.0/sigc++/visit_each.h:169:29: warning: unused variable ‘do_visit_each’ [-Wunused-variable] { sigc::visitor<T_functor>::do_visit_each(_A_action, _A_functor); } ^ CXX device-manager.o Makefile:5958: recipe for target 'desktop.o' failed make[2]: *** [desktop.o] Error 1 Dropping back to 2.3.1 fixed it. One of my colleagues created a patch to locally revert that particular change in libsigc++ which also fixed the build. My first question [ at last! ] is: Do you care about people who build 0.48 with libsigc++-2.3-series ? If you do, any ideas how to fix this ? Thanks. ĸen -- Nanny Ogg usually went to bed early.
