Hello, I'm having problems trying to RPM &/or compile inkscape in Yoper linux. I have a thread going on the Yoper site here: http://www.yoper.com/forum2/index.php?showtopic=1928
As Bryce said, there is an autopackage you can use here:
http://navi.cx/~mike/inkscape/0.39/inkscape-0.39.package
Alternatively if you want the bleeding edge of Inkscape development try this:
http://navi.cx/~mike/inkscape/inkscape-0.40cvs.package
it's not really that bleeding, I was using it the other day and it was working well. The star randomization feature is cool.
They're executable shell scripts, so just mark them executable and run them.
Like Bryce said, they aren't 100% reliable yet as it's beta software and we're still shaking out the bugs. But it seems to work far more often than it fails, there have been over 6500 downloads of it and only a few problem reports. So either nobody bothers to report failures, or it usually works.
Anyway, might be worth a shot.
