First, download this file:

Note that these steps basically boil down to "run the .package file", for people using GUI installers. The command line step is just "bash ./inkscape-0.39cvs.package"
Finally, write down anything that you find confusing or have problems with during the installation or while using the program, and put your feedback into the bug tracker for Inkscape. (See Report Bugs on the Inkscape website.)
For bugs/confusion with the installation please report them to us also.
Note that each day you can re-run the .package file to update to the latest and greatest inkscape code.
Yep but you have to redownload it first. Autopackage won't currently do that for you.
Also note that the current nightlies are built against 0.5, which had a few bugs in w.r.t X security and kde 3.2/gnome 2.6 menus. The bugs which actually broke installs are fixed in CVS and the upcoming 0.6 release, when it's out I'll switch the nightlies to using it.
