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?
