I have uploaded a new Universal pre0 package for Leopard to Sourceforge. Thanks ~suv for the detailed feedback on the last version. The following issues have been fixed (and changes to the packaging scripts committed to SVN): - Missing gtk2-clearlooks engine added. - Missing Python files added. - Problem with the GDK-pixbufs not working (images not loading) is fixed.
Please try out and report any additional issues.
At first sight this build looks great and as stable and complete as the previous devel builds. Thank you for your efforts and the quick fixes! I'll post these further notes to the inkscape-devel list now, I hope this is ok?
1) critical / crashes
- spellcheck: none of this years development builds for osx had the spell checker enabled. On my vanilla OS X 10.5.7 invoking the spellchecker crashes Inkscape when closing the unfunctional dialog. In the Spellcheck preferences panel I cannot select any languages except <none>, console message says
** (inkscape-bin:1109): WARNING **: Error: No word lists can be found for the language "en_US".
This crash happens independant of any $LANG settings in bin/inkscape. I need some time (or hints) to find out what's missing and how to (if possible) configure spellcheck outside of inkscape.
2) minor missing features / quirks
- revision number and build date are not updated in the 'About' screen
- missing menu icon for 'About Inkscape…': this bug started to appear first in windows builds only, since 047pre0 it happens on osx as well: icons/inkscape.svg fails to load/render, renaming it forces inkscape to use the icon included in icons/icons.svg (see bug #371724), renders ok.
- other (previoulsy unseen) console msgs: opening and closing (cancel) the print dialog (or extensions dialogs like 'Text' > 'Lorem Ipsum'):
(inkscape-bin:1164): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_x11_atom_to_xatom_for_display: assertion `atom != GDK_NONE' failed
while trying to reproduce bug #388257 (pdf text export):
(inkscape-bin:8538): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_grab_default: assertion `GTK_WIDGET_CAN_DEFAULT (widget)' failed
When I know how to reproduce, should I post a bug report? Haven't seen crashes or other related errors, only the warnings.
- missing OCAL: previous builds had ocal import/export enabled. The import worked with some occasional crashes (see bug #365567), I never tried the export function.
- please rebuild tutorials (see bug #381274)
3) wishlist
- additional theme engines as in r21525? (~suv hesitates to 'go macports' but loves to tinker with inkscape themes ;-)
4) questions
- libdbus, librsvg (among others) were previously included, are they no longer needed? - new $XDG_DATA_DIRS variable/mimetype configs: do you have some pointers/links? - prefs > misc > sysinfo: no more system dirs in icon search path, why?
on these issues I will report separately:
5) proposals - locale settings broken in bin/inscape for (standard) collation order - use login shell in script/openDoc (see bug #383456)
hth, ~suv
