Bend LPE crashes badly, incompatible to LPE generated with 0.46, but limited to the option 'Original Path is vertical'. Bug #436304 “bend path effect doesn't work in 0.47 but does in 0.46”: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/436304
Fixed... woohoo!
questions:
- Python extensions on Snow Leopard not working
I cannot verify it myself but had yet another (e-mail) report last week about failing extensions on SL. Unfortunately there is not separate bug filed. Does Inkscape 0.47pre2-3 fix this? Bug #421305 “Inkscape does not run on Mac OSX 10.6”: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/421305
Sounds like a packaging issue, which can luckily be fixed without a point release if necessary. (Although if it could be taken care of before release that would rock).
- there are many 3dbox related bugs and even crashes: Has anyone yet
had a chance to look at the patch attached in Bug #205667 “Inkscape crashes when using 3d box after attempting to render latex, gears, tree, barcode, maybe others.”: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/205667 ?
The patch was reviewed, and could be an okay "quick fix"... However, bulia has a patch from Max which fixes this properly (and probably many other 3dbox issues). Unfortunately is not safe to commit at this late of a stage in release. Since we are shooting for a shorter dev cycle for 0.48, it's really just better to live with this for a short period.
