[Inkscape-devel] Does PDF Import actually work?

Hi all,

I am trying to test out the new PDF capabilities for Inkscape, as they're perhaps one of our most significant new features. Unfortunately, I'm not having luck getting PDF import working:

I downloaded form W-4 from irs.gov and attempted File > Import, but got the following error on the console:

/tmp/fw4.pdf:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found %PDF-1.6 ^

It looks like Inkscape's not detecting the file as a PDF, and trying to open it as an SVG. Anyone know what's going on?
