Hey All,
As some of you already know, I am trying to get 0.42 in the next version of Ubuntu, due in October. Inkscape is a supported program, and thus there are strict dates for uploading, one of which we have already passed. Now, the Feature Freeze is rapidly approaching (Aug 11). and I hear of crashers in 0.42.
I already know that several of you already use and promote Ubuntu. It would truly suck if 0.42.1 missed Breezy.

Sounds wonderful. It is good to be on Ubuntu. But what is the remedy but "hurry" ? That's what got us all into this situation in the first place, where we are worrying about various distros and architectures instead of development.
What precisely is needed? I would think that any code snapshot around this time, that is built on Ubuntu and nicely tested, would work fine. Just my poor opinion. ;-) Most of the distro problems have been the usual disjoints with existing and needed deps. I would think that this would need to work on an individual basis, and that building from source is the only safe delivery.
