Fwd: Scribus 1.5.8 released
by Maren Hachmann 25 Jan '22

25 Jan '22

Forwarding for your interest: -------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- The Scribus Team is pleased to announce the release of version 1.5.8. Like previous releases, work on version 1.5.8 focused mostly on bugfixes and code optimizations, the latter of which are expected to lead to reliability and speed improvements. We have also begun to prepare Scribus for using Qt6, which will make our work easier for future releases. Most important changes General - UI Improvements for dark mode and some icon updates and window interactivity - Improvements to file import (IDML, PDF, PNG, TIFF, SVG) - Improvements to PDF export - Improvements with respect to tables (undo/redo, styles) - Improvements to the Story Editor - Improvements to the build system - Translation updates Technical/OS-related updates - Scribus 1.5.8 now includes Python 3 and is built for mac OS Catalina or higher. Additional Notes The complete changelog is available here: https://bugs.scribus.net/changelog_page.php?version_id=112. More details are available from the Scribus Commit Mailing List archive (http://lists.scribus.net/pipermail/scribus-commit/), beginning with revision 24637 in April 2021. Please note that while some bug fixes still may be backported to the 1.4.x branch, we do not plan an official release of this version anymore. If you think you need the changes, you have to check out the SVN repository and build 1.4.9svn from source. We encourage all Linux and *BSD distributions to switch from 1.4.x to this new version, since it's not only much more versatile but also more stable. Download For download links and checksums please visit: https://w.scribus.net/wiki/index.php/1.5.8_Release Credits The Scribus Team would like to thank Anduin.net and Modirum for their continued hosting of all of the Scribus websites. We are grateful to the Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie for sponsoring. The Scribus Team is also honored to have Resene Colours (New Zealand), dtp studio Oldenburg (Germany), Scientific Illustration Services Corp. (USA), the Newspaper Association of America (USA), Software Consulting Services (USA), freieFarbe e.V. (Germany), bauwerk Kommunikationsdesign (Germany) as Special Supporters and donors of color palettes and other content since the 1.4.x release, just like we are grateful to the owner of Vector Portal for the permission to distribute some of his work as Scribus Templates. Finally, the Scribus Team would like to thank the many end users, translators, testers and contributors who helped us with this release.

Bonjour ami.e Inkspacer, Je ne peux plus exporter en png. Le message derreur : « point critique. un point d'arrêt a été atteint » Inkspace se ferme alors (plantage). Jai cherché sur la liste en anglais (inkscape-devel.lists.inkscape.org <https://lists.inkscape.org/postorius/lists/inkscape-devel.lists.inkscape.or g/> ) si cette erreur avait été rapportée. Apparemment non. Je travaille sous Win 10 Pro (ordi de linstitut). Merci à qui pourra aider. JML

Re: [Inkscape-translator] Re: Call for translations for Inkscape 1.1.2 (bug fix release, stable branch)
by Maren Hachmann 16 Jan '22

16 Jan '22

Hi Firas, confirmed, it's an annoying GitLab issue that hasn't been addressed for quite some time. I think it could potentially be fixable by adjusting our Continuous Integration to not have the Windows builds in a separate pipeline and to just go by date instead or whatever. (or, of course, GitLab itself could fix it, but they have known about the problem for a couple years now, so I'm not hopeful.) The summary is that the additional, scheduled (so, resource-conscious) job of the Windows builds overwrites the build results listed in the dropdown and drops old build results from the 'latest' job. You can still always find the latest successful build for 1.1.x here in this list (don't choose those that are have the little 'Scheduled' badge, but the latest one of the others): https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/pipelines?page=1&scope=all&ref=1.1.x… Or, just wait a bit... (not a great idea at the moment). Or, currently, the po and pot files in the repository are up to date, too, but that is never guaranteed. I'm including the developer mailing list as this is something they might have a way to fix.

Dev Environment Setup
by Aashutosh Konge 03 Jan '22

03 Jan '22

HI, it would be a huge help if anyone could resolve my issue with the dev env setup as mentioned in 'Getting started with inkscape', specifically with the executable build. Whenever, I try to install the build dependencies on Ubuntu 20.04 using '*bash install_dependencies --recommended'. *I seem to be getting the same error for each dependency: *"**Failed to fetch http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/....... <http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/.......>."* I've tried to find answers on the internet but none of them work out. It would be a huge help if someone could help me with figuring out a workaround. *System specs*: OS: Ubuntu 20.04.3 OS type: 64-bit GNOME Version: 3.36.8

Help us staff a booth at the largest German Online Linux event (English/German)!
by Maren Hachmann 27 Dec '21

27 Dec '21

Hi everyone, the Inkscape project is planning to host a virtual booth/stand again at the Chemnitzer Linuxtage (CLT), on March 12 and 13 (Sat/Sun) 2022! Usually the largest Linux and Open Source event in Germany, CLT are going to be an online-only event in 2022 again. The CLT (Chemnitzer Linuxtage) are an all-day event and we could use your help answering user questions about how to work with the program, how to contribute to it and about what is going on in the Inkscape community, by being available for questions and chatting at our virtual booth. The other thing we plan to do again is a series of short, 10 to 50 min topic-focused sessions – show other users how you use Inkscape, how to use your Inkscape extension, how people can help the Inkscape project or which cool things you made with Inkscape (and they can, too!). A live drawing session, a demonstration, a tour through your maker lab - anything that has to do with Inkscape is possible! So, no matter if you're 'just a user', a developer, a forum member, a regular user support provider in our chat channels, an Inkscape translator or other contributor – if you have some time available to spend helping the Inkscape project on that weekend in March, we would very much appreciate your help! Start by introducing yourself at the GitLab issue report where we're discussing the event organization! ****************** Please get in contact with us as soon as possible and find more info at https://gitlab.com/inkscape/vectors/general/-/issues/235 Let us know how you can help make the booth an interesting place for visitors to drop by! ****************** We're going to have a first chat meeting with all those interested on Saturday, January 8, 2022 at 17:30 UTC (18:30 German time, after the Inkscape Vectors' meeting) at https://chat.inkscape.org/channel/team_vectors Hope to see you, it's going to be fun! If you are not able to join us at the booth, consider visiting us there! Kind Regards Maren ------------------ More info: Chemnitzer Linuxtage: https://chemnitzer.linux-tage.de/2022/en/ What we did last year: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/vectors/general/-/issues/192
