Could you add this info to the Inkscape OSX wiki page, so if others wish to get involved with making an OSX port they have the latest info? (I've had people contact me offlist about this, and I typically just point them at the wiki.)
Yes no problem, this is planned. But right now I am all excited since I got the gtk-demo to run after tweaking pango. Woohoo! So now I just need to compile all other inkscape dependencies, recompile inkscape... and we'll see. I'll report my success or failure shortly.
It seems that "shortly" took me a little while in fact... So, I got Inkscape to compile and run almost fine using the native GTK version in MacPorts quite easily. I did a screencast (this is what took most of the time ;) ) and you can find it here: http://jo.irisson.free.fr/?p=34 The remaining problems: - a very annoying screen flicker (it is conspicuous in the video) but I think it is fixed in the latest version of GTK (remember this is using MacPorts version so these are already quite "old") - crashes when opening various dialogs (I will not report it for now, since it is with an old version) So I'll try to integrate development versions into MacPorts (MacPorts can fetch svn code easily, and treat this as a regular port) and we'll see. But that won't be before a while.
