In our sourceforge forum an anonymous poster is asking:

Do we have these? If so, were? See http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1985330&forum_id=323059
Unfortunately, due to the ways that PPAs work this is impossible. What happens with the PPA is that the binary is built on one of Canonical's servers, so no Inkscape developer can sign it. It was decided with the PPAs that the packages would not be signed as it might make users believe that a package in a PPA was coming from an official repository. I disagree with this choice, but as long as we're using free processor time we don't get to choose :)
