Are you really going to put out a release with no working import of raster graphics? (it didn't seem like I was the only windows user with that problem but I didn't file a report yet so maybe I was and I also haven't checked the nightyl builds for at least a week).

Send in a recreatable test case to the tracker, and if it is a critical bug that should be fixed prior to release then it will be tracked and if possible fixed.
Sorry I just haven't had time to test Inkscape recently. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=894662&grou...
I still cannot import images using the latest version of Inkscape provided by Bob Jamison. Inkscape 0.37-20040210 on Windows XP specifically (installed to D:\program files\inkscape)
Okay, well obviously it's too late to put it in this release, but perhaps if/when we do a maintenance 0.37.1 release it will be fixed by then. Let's make sure a bug report gets into the system so it can be tracked.

Fixed! Looked in main.cpp, and the code was not doing anything with the possible error information from an image import failure.
Well, it does now...
Now it pops up an sp_ui_error_dialog() with useful information if an image import fails.
So now we get information. And you know what? The PNG loader module wants libpng.dll, while the rest of the libs want libpng12.dll. So, we dupe the file, and problem gone. Obviously, on Linux, this was solved by a symlink. A bit wasteful, but it works.
And Jpeg, which I thought was working, wasn't, but it is now.
Just ran another auto-build, here it is: http://troi.lincom-asg.com/~rjamison/inkscape/builds/Inkscape0402101802.zip
Hopefully, it should import images famously.
