Inkscape Status July 3, 2005

12 Jul '05

Oops, a couple days late on the stats this time... Project Status - Friday, July 1, 2005 Attention is focusing heavily on bug fixing now. We're over the hump, and the release is within sight (probably a week or two). Many of the remaining bugs are Windows-specific, so we need some more developers and testers on that platform to grind those out. The About screen contest has closed and is in voting phase; if you've not already, please go check out the really cool screens that have been submitted, and vote on your two favorites: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1227185&group_id=… Statistics May 15 Jun 1 Jun 15 Jul 1 ========== ====== ====== ====== ====== Max Week's Rank on SourceForge: * 38 33 35 Total SF Page Views * 1,935,964 3,679,803 3,797,037 Total SF Downloads * 254,647 270,500 283,789 Total Freshmeat URL Hits 18,691 19,149 19,482 19,809 Total Freshmeat Subscriptions 181 183 186 189 Lines of Code in src/: 373,651 374,180 375,836 376,319 Code lines 259,984 260,236 261,201 261,600 Comment line 67,053 67,136 67,657 67,724 Blank 53,244 53,443 53,632 53,651 Lines of Docs in doc/: 26,848 27,790 27,792 27,792 Lines of content in website: 39,865 42,490 42,610 42,700 Size of the Inkscape wiki: 27,052 26,729 27,712 28,525 Bugs open/total: 208/1196 215/1223 199/1271 196/1312 Features open/total: 442/ 712 453/ 728 466/746 471/ 767 Patches open/total: 11/ 221 11/ 230 18/247 10/ 268 CVS Commits (as per inkscape-cvs) 11,897 12,040 12,181 12,372 Inkscape-devel membership: 173 179 180 188 Inkscape-announce membership: 197 202 207 217 Inkscape-user membership: 242 248 257 258 Num Translations: 33 33 33 33 Ave Translation Ratio: 47.0 47.8 48.3 48.6 * - Statistics unavailable

assembler messages

Recently when I make inkscape I have been seeing quite a few "Assembler messages" like the following. I was just wondering what it means and if it was a bad thing. /tmp/cc9ATmXE.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/cc9ATmXE.s:1266: Warning: ignoring changed section attributes for .gnu.linkonce.t._ZN4Glib13PropertyProxyIbE9set_valueERKb /tmp/cc9ATmXE.s:1497: Warning: ignoring changed section attributes for .gnu.linkonce.t._ZN3Gtk23CellRenderer_Generation21generate_cellrendererIN4Glib7ustringEEEPNS_12CellRendererEb /tmp/cc9ATmXE.s:1737: Warning: ignoring changed section attributes for .gnu.linkonce.t._ZN3Gtk14TreeViewColumnC1IN4Glib7ustringEEERKS3_RKNS_15TreeModelColumnIT_EE /tmp/cc9ATmXE.s:2633: Warning: ignoring changed section attributes for .gnu.linkonce.t._ZNK3Gtk7TreeRow9set_valueIN4Glib7ustringEEEvRKNS_15TreeModelColumnIT_EERKS5_ /tmp/cc9ATmXE.s:2761: Warning: ignoring changed section attributes for .gnu.linkonce.t._ZN4sigc8internal14typed_slot_repINS_19bind_return_functorIbNS_18bound_mem_functor0IvN8Inkscape2UI6Dialog6Memory7PrivateEEEEEE3dupEPv /tmp/cc9ATmXE.s:3181: Warning: ignoring changed section attributes for .gnu.linkonce.t._ZN4sigc8internal14typed_slot_repINS_18bound_mem_functor0IvN8Inkscape2UI6Dialog6Memory7PrivateEEEE3dupEPv /tmp/cc9ATmXE.s:4646: Warning: ignoring changed section attributes for .gnu.linkonce.t._ZN8Inkscape2UI6Dialog6Memory7PrivateC1Ev also noticed this: LC_ALL=C ./intltool-merge -d -u -c ./po/.intltool-merge-cache ./po inkscape.desktop.in inkscape.desktop Generating and caching the translation database Merging translations into inkscape.desktop. sr.po: unclosed : #: ../src/seltrans.cpp:784 ../src/seltrans.cpp:864 #, c-format msgid "Scale: %0.2f%% x %0.2f%%; with Ctrl to lock ratio" msgstr "\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff: %0.2f%% x %0.2f%%; \uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff Ctrl \uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff \uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff\uffff" sr@...311...: unclosed : #: ../src/seltrans.cpp:784 ../src/seltrans.cpp:864 #, c-format msgid "Scale: %0.2f%% x %0.2f%%; with Ctrl to lock ratio" msgstr "Skaliranje: %0.2f%% x %0.2f%%; sa Ctrl za proporcionalno" WARNING: Bad markup found in translations.

Facing problem while using COMPRESSED SVG extensions
by Swapnil Khandave 11 Jul '05

11 Jul '05

Hi, I am facing problem while using extensions. I am only concerned about extension for COMPRESSED SVG. When I try to run the executable it shows message box containing following message: [One or more extensions failed to load The failed extensions have been skipped. Inkscape will continue to run normally but those extensions will be unavailable. For details to troubleshoot this problem, please refer to the error log located at: D:\Documents and Settings\swapnil\Application Data\Inkscape\extension-errors.log ] AND extension-errors.log contains: [Extension "SVGZ Output" failed to load because a dependency was not met. Dependency:: type: executable location: path string: gzip] and I don't get the facility for compressing the SVG file. I have downloaded gzip exe and I have placed it in the system path, so what is the problem? What else it want? Can any one help me? Thanks in advance. Regards, Swapnil

Are there "print" extensions"? Uhm, yes, but not the way that you're thinking. There are print extensions, but they don't really match the architecture of the rest of the extensions systems -- they were added separately. They're really more like pluggable renderers. So Postscript is done this way, where certain functions can be implemented, and used to render the document a different way. This means that there isn't a scripting interface implemented for this (I have no clue to how you would). Anyway, no, there isn't currently a way to put that into the pipeline as a "print extension". But, you could have a "Save as multipage" extension with an autogui for all the settings you want... --Ted

inkscape-shadow.README installed as executable
by Wolfram Quester 11 Jul '05

11 Jul '05

Hi, while preparing the package of 0.42pre1 for debian lintian was not happy: W: inkscape: executable-not-elf-or-script ./usr/share/inkscape/extensions/inkscape-shadow.README This file gets the x-bit during installation since in share/extensions/Makefile it is listed as extension. Perhaps "otherstuff" would be a more appropriate place for it? Or better yet, shouldn't these READMEs be installed in the documentation directory, that is /usr/share/doc/inkscape? With best wishes, Wolfi

Inkscape build test system + current results
by Bryce Harrington 11 Jul '05

11 Jul '05

A couple weeks ago, Kees and I set up an automated test harness for Inkscape. It's been running smoothly and collecting test results. Currently, the harness simply retrieves the nightly snapshots and builds them, logging compilation or installation problems. Anyway, I notice it's found a few warnings: ### BUILD ### Making all in src display/canvas-arena.cpp: In function `void sp_canvas_arena_class_init(SPCanvasArenaClass*)': display/canvas-arena.cpp:91: warning: invalid access to non-static data member `SPCanvasArenaClass::arena_event' of NULL object display/canvas-arena.cpp:91: warning: (perhaps the `offsetof' macro was used incorrectly) display/sp-canvas.cpp: In function `void sp_canvas_item_class_init(SPCanvasItemClass*)': display/sp-canvas.cpp:112: warning: invalid access to non-static data member `SPCanvasItemClass::event' of NULL object display/sp-canvas.cpp:112: warning: (perhaps the `offsetof' macro was used incorrectly) libnrtype/Layout-TNG-Output.cpp: In function `const char* Inkscape::Text::weight_to_text(PangoWeight)': libnrtype/Layout-TNG-Output.cpp:226: warning: enumeration value `PANGO_WEIGHT_SEMIBOLD' not handled in switch livarot/float-line.cpp: In member function `void FloatLigne::Affiche()': livarot/float-line.cpp:518: warning: long unsigned int format, size_t arg (arg 2) livarot/float-line.cpp:524: warning: long unsigned int format, size_t arg (arg 2) Making all in po am.po: parsing error for `<defs>': #: ../src/main.cpp:326 msgid "Remove unused definitions from the <defs> section(s) of the document" msgstr "" (repeated for each language) WARNING: Bad markup found in translations.

New Inkscape Tutorial Article
by Jon Phillips 11 Jul '05

11 Jul '05

http://www.linux-magazine.com/issue/56/Inkscape_Vector_Graphics.pdf I also added a link on the wiki: http://inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ArticlesAndPresentations It is in Issue 56: July 2005 of Linux Magazine. It is a nice little article covering how to draw with Inkscape. The PDF above has the whole article! I also noted in my daily scan of the linux magazines that the PR we send out for OCAL and Inkscape makes it into most of the magazines now, if only a little blurb...soooo....great!

Blogs for Inkscape contributers (mainly SoC)
by Jonathan Leighton 11 Jul '05

11 Jul '05

Hi everyone, I am going to be setting up WordPress blogs for those who would like one, in response to the request for them for SoC people. Any Inkscape contributer is eligible for a blog, and you are very much encouraged to write one : ). I am going to set them up on the default "Kubrick" template, but if you want to customise yours you are free to do so. I will help people out with admin issues... but if such issues are created by you writing a template, adding plugins, etc. I won't be able to help (sorry, but I don't have time). Details I need are: 1) Name 2) E-mail address 3) A 'title' for your blog When it is set up I will email you details so that you can log into your account and begin blogging. You will be the administrator and responsible for doing any configuration that you need/want (don't worry there's nothing hard). However, as I say, I am willing to help with problems so long as said problems are not the result of plugins or themes you've added. Jon -- Jonathan Leighton aka.
