I was wondering, now that SL supports 64bit widely, is it possible to create an Inkscape build which runs in 64bit? lisanet.de already made one from Gimp, and it seems to be working much faster than before.
Of course in Gimp speed is more relevant than in Inkscape, but I guess a speed up is welcome (even if it would just be a startup speed up). Or are there things (like Python libraries, etc.) which prevent this?
No one has really every tried I think. Could you point us out to the gimp-64 bit thingy? Is it documented somewhere? All our dependencies come from macports while I think The Gimp has gotten more and more towards doing their own thing, or reinventing their own wheel if you are so inclined. It might be that, for this particular purpose, their wheel is better suited than ours.
Pretty much what ~suv said ;)
sorry for answering a question JiHO had addressed to you ;-)
'gimponosx' initial changes for compiling on SL beginn with rev. 71 http://gimponosx.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gimponosx?view=rev&revision=71 and continue up to rev. 87 (including the changes to use the system python and allow quit from dock icon).
