This is what I am anxiously waiting for. I've tried to enable the Python interpreter with configure flags, but I just don't think I'm doing it correctly. When ever I include the flag configure reports the status "no" instead of "skipped".
More specifically, here are the configure commands I've used and the corresponding output:
# CXX='ccache g++' ./configure <snip> Use Python extensions: skipped Use Perl extensions: skipped
# CXX='ccache g++' ./configure --with-python=yes <snip> Use Python extensions: no Use Perl extensions: skipped
What am I doing wrong?
And I have a second question. Last night I added the following to my ~/.inkscape/preferences.xml file:
<group show-effects-menu="1" id="extensions" />
I can now see the effects menu, but the effects (for instance "DropShadow") don't seem to affect anything. What is the proceedure for using these effects?
