I have a question regarding these bitmap scaling bugs. As far as I know the patch for bitmap scaling with Cairo has been applied
If this bug is fixed with the new Cairo, then it should be made a dup. suv~ thoughts?
I wonder what will happen with distros that don't have the new version of Cairo yet once inkscape 0.49 is released.
We already have the new Cairo in PPA. Bryce can probably be more specific, but the goal I believe is to make the new Cairo a hard dep, bundle it with Windows and Mac versions and keep the PPA until Debian FDOs catch up and can include the new inkscape version. Same might apply to the Hat FDOs but I don't know about their PPA.
So what's the plan?
Fix bugs and hope we can make a release ;-)
