Just thought I'd offer an update on my progress on trying to compile from SVN:
pandfi@...1446...:/usr/local/svn/inkscape/trunk$ svn info Path: . URL: https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/inkscape/inkscape/trunk Repository Root: https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/inkscape Repository UUID: 79ec4920-5e0a-0410-a93a-b0c7084bcf59 Revision: 13075 Node Kind: directory Schedule: normal Last Changed Author: johanengelen Last Changed Rev: 13073 Last Changed Date: 2006-09-15 10:46:06 +0100 (Fri, 15 Sep 2006) Properties Last Updated: 2006-08-31 22:35:25 +0100 (Thu, 31 Aug 2006)
Can now compile without any errors using:
"./configure --enable-lcms --prefix=/home/pandfi/inkscape-svn/"
I then make && make install. Everything went smoothly.
Still get "segmentation fault".
Using gdb the output is:

The latest released version 0.44.1 doesn't work for me either ... (but I have 0.44 installed and working fine) ... I get this from gdb:

If I'm reading this right I have a problem between inkscape and libstdc++ (standard C++?). In fact it looks to be a locale issue? Any help greatfully received, thanks. I'm using cxxlibs-6.0.3-i486-1 and gcc-g++-3.4.6-i486-1 (these appear to be originators for libstdc++).
Cheers
