Good day. I use the following software: inkscape-svn cairo-git poppler-git libpng-1.2.32 cairomm-git freetype2-cvs gtkmm-2.14.1 glibmm-2.18.0 on Slamd64-current. When I try to compile inkscape compilation is aborted on the following: <CONSOLE_LOG> make all-recursive make[1]: Entering directory `$HOME/tmp/src/inkscape-svn' Making all in src make[2]: Entering directory `$HOME/tmp/src/inkscape-svn/src' depbase=`echo sp-image.o | sed 's|[^/]*$|.deps/&|;s|\.o$||'`;\ g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I/usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/CORE -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/poppler -I/usr/include/poppler/glib -I/usr/include/poppler -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 -I/usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/include -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib64/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/pixman-1 -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng12 -DPOTRACE=\"potrace\" -pthread -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include/gdkmm-2.4 -I/usr/lib64/gdkmm-2.4/include -I/usr/include/glibmm-2.4 -I/usr/lib64/glibmm-2.4/include -I/usr/include/pangomm-1.4 -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 -I/usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/include -I/usr/include/cairomm-1.0 -I/usr/include/sigc++-2.0 -I/usr/lib64/sigc++-2.0/include -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib64/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/pixman-1 -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng12 -I/usr/include/gtkmm-2.4 -I/usr/lib64/gtkmm-2.4/include -I/usr/include/giomm-2.4 -I/usr/lib64/giomm-2.4/include -I/usr/include/atkmm-1.6 -I/usr/include/atk-1.0 -I/usr/include/libxml2 -I../cxxtest -Werror=format-security -Wall -Wformat -Wformat-security -W -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wsign-compare -Woverloaded-virtual -Wswitch -Wno-unused-parameter -g -O2 -MT sp-image.o -MD -MP -MF $depbase.Tpo -c -o sp-image.o sp-image.cpp &&\ mv -f $depbase.Tpo $depbase.Po In file included from /usr/include/libpng12/png.h:459, from sp-image.cpp:50: /usr/include/libpng12/pngconf.h:326: error: expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before '.' token /usr/include/libpng12/pngconf.h:327: error: '__dont__' does not name a type make[2]: *** [sp-image.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `$HOME/tmp/src/inkscape-svn/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `$HOME/tmp/src/inkscape-svn' make: *** [all] Error 2 </CONSOLE_LOG> I check the 'pngconf.h' file and found that line-327 tries to avoid repeated inclusion of setjmp.h but this file is included in buildtool.cpp My last successfull build of Inkscape was done 23 Aug 2008 (Help->About Inkscape).

2geom SVN warning
by Krzysztof Kosiński 31 Oct '08

31 Oct '08

There is a file called "!PLEASE DON'T MAKE CHANGES IN THESE FILES.README" in the 2geom directory. It says that 2geom code should be changed in 2geom SVN instead of in the Inkscape SVN, because changes will be destroyed otherwise. Is this warning still intact?

Replace soft-hyphenation character with a hard-hyphenation
by Stefan de Konink 30 Oct '08

30 Oct '08

Hi, I'm trying to get soft-hyphenation to work in an acceptable fashion before going into deeper details. I want te solve the following task; - In the _measureUnbrokenSpan loop (Layout-TNG-Compute.cpp) soft-hyphens are detected. It can nicely break in such situation. - Currently a soft-hypen is invisible, but clearly the position in the source stream is know. - Based on this position I want to *replace* the softhypen in this rendering run with a '-' - This might need an a priori knowledge of the '-' width Could anyone suggest how to append a Span with only a "-" or replace the soft-hyphen with a hard one in this run? Thanks in advance, Stefan de Konink

NEW: Auto smooth nodes
by bulia byak 30 Oct '08

30 Oct '08

Thanks to Thomas Holder for the patch: Auto smooth nodes: a new "auto" node type was added, similar to the one Xara Xtreme has. An auto node is a smooth node which automatically adjusts (rotates and stretches) its handles when this node or its neighbors are moved. This adjustment (same as what you get when you convert node type to Smooth, but continuous) keeps the curve at this node as smooth as possible. It feels a bit like Spiro paths; although not as smooth as a Spiro, it may often be preferable as it works without any Path Effect. Whenever you manually adjust the handles of an auto node or drag the adjacent curve, it loses its auto state and becomes smooth; for this reason, it is recommended to edit smooth nodes with the node handles hidden via a toggle button on the controls bar. Auto nodes are represented by little circles, as opposed to smooth/symmetric nodes (squares) and cusp nodes (diamonds). To convert selected node(s) to auto, press Shift+A or use the corresponding node type button on the controls bar. -- bulia byak Inkscape. Draw Freely. http://www.inkscape.org

Re: [Inkscape-devel] Snapping should only occur at the end of a movement

That's at least partly because Inkscape doesn't snap smooth nodes by default any longer. Please look for that new option on the second tab with snapping preferences. At least some nodes should snap now, but that might only have been part of the problem. It still looks like some nodes are being excluded. Bye, Diederik

Inkscape and GIO
by Krzysztof Kosiński 29 Oct '08

29 Oct '08

GConf integration needs some additional thought and community input before deciding whether to have it or not, so I have a question about another good technology, GIO. Milestone 0.47 in the roadmap has GTK 2.12 listed in the dependencies. GTK 2.12 in turn depends on Glib 2.16 (at least on Ubuntu Hardy), which includes GIO. In fact with the next version, GTK 2.14, the build fails if giomm-2.4 is not added to configure.ac, because gtkmm-2.4 depends on it. So it looks like everything is in place to use it. Can we start making use of GIO now, or do we have to wait some more until it's more commonplace in Linux distributions?

[PATCH] Fedora MinGW cross-compiling patch, version 2
by Richard W.M. Jones 29 Oct '08

29 Oct '08

This is the second version of the patch to get Inkscape to cross-compile from Fedora MinGW. (1) I've tested that this doesn't break the build on Linux. (2) You cannot set INKSCAPE_CFLAGS in the Win32 test, because then PKG_CHECK_MODULES(INKSCAPE, ...) refuses to update this variable. Thus I introduced a separate WIN32_CFLAGS variable. (3) You need to check for fontconfig before checking for Xft. Otherwise the cross-compiler erroneously picks up the platform native version of Xft, which leads to incorrect linker flags. (4) Use g_getenv / g_setenv instead of getenv / setenv. (5) is_os_vista no longer needs to be commented out.
