On http://www.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?CompilingInkscape , section "Developer Compilation", I added "libtoolize --copy --force" (that's Revision 58 of CompilingInkscape) to the example after finding out somewhere that this solves the problem. (At least it did for me.) This line might need to be added to other sections (the missing ltmain.sh seems to be described there though) and INSTALL as well...
Cool thanks. Can you post a patch to the patch tracker for adding the correct info to the INSTALL file?
Just wanted to look at it, but the INSTALL file is autotools boilerplate, it's not in CVS, and I think most people ignore it anyway for the FSF copyright and the "These are generic installation instructions." line.
So the best thing would be to "move" INSTALL to INSTALL.gnu (this move needs to be implemented in the Inkscape-local autotools files) and have INSTALL be a copy of a Wiki page (CompilingInkscape?) instead.
What do you think?
