.dfx: Generic AutoCAD export failed to load (see .ai).
- missing helper_extension 'org.inkscape.output.ps'
(related bug #407215 https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/407215) proposed fix: in dxf_output.inx s/org.inkscape.output.ps/org.inkscape.print.ps.cairo/
the 'AutoCAD DXF (*.dxf)'output extension is loaded and creates DXF output if pstoedit is installed, though I cannot get pstoedit to create DXF files that can be re-imported in Inkscape (on OS X 10.5.7, pstoedit 3.45).
This seems to work but it calls up the PostScript output dialog which I am not sure is the best. Qcad does read the output dxf OK. Tested on Fedora 11 with today's svn.
