Runners up have been contacted. - [pjrm] Possible W3C test regressions. Status: Peter needs to take a look and fix if easy. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=604306&aid=1224751&group_… Bryce and Kees looked at this: doesn't entirely look like a show-stopper. - [ishmal, bulia] Win98 crash Status: nothing obvious found.

Inkscape 0.42 effects dependencies in gentoo
by Bryce Harrington 22 Jul '05

22 Jul '05

Hiya Zephyr, One of the cool new things in 0.42 is that there is now a way for users to turn on the Effects menu. Effects are basically scripts that the user can invoke to do specialized actions to the drawing. Think Gimp's Script-Fu. However, there's a small packaging issue that I've noticed, that needs to be figured out. The scripts depend on some other language modules (Perl scripts need SVG.pm, python scripts need PyXML), and sometimes some other random bits and pieces (e.g. Sketch for file conversion). In general, if you just emerge inkscape, it doesn't pick up those deps, which is probably correct since they're not truly compile-time dependencies. However, on the other hand it's inconveient to have to manually figure out and emerge all the deps. Anyway, I'm wondering if there could be a way set up for the 0.42 package where users could have a way to choose between having just the compile-time deps installed, vs. having both them and the optional deps installed as well? Bryce

I think we should cut pre3. If the W3C stuff turns out not to be a problem, we can move ahead. No sense waiting, IMHO. SHOW STOPPERS - [pjrm] Possible W3C test regressions.
