Hello ~suv,
thanks for your reply.
Sorry that I'm really a kid… - I assumed that the sentence "and after adding the PKG_CONFIG_PATH to the shell environment" means pasting
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$LIBPREFIX/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"
into the shell - and than do autogen, configure, make and make install.
So did I - but ended up with the same error. Or should I have copied the line into one of the files?
Greetings,
Wolf

as I'm running into the well-known "gnuplot-inkscape"-bug of 0.46, and unluckily no 0.47 ppc precompiled packages are available, I tried to compile the most recent package myself on Mac OS X 10.4.11 PPC.
After "./configure" I run into this error message:
configure: error: libpng >= 1.2 is needed to compile inkscape
But I do have a suitable libpng:
port installed libpng The following ports are currently installed: libpng @1.2.38_0 (active)
Initially when running autogen.sh and configure on OS X 10.5.8 i386 I had the same issue. My workaround at that time is described in an earlier thread [1], but as I lack experience and coding skills myself I can't judge its validity. Maybe one of devs involved in the osx packaging process can provide more insight into this problem.
