my apologies for cross-posting but I wasn't getting any response in Inkscape-User so I thought I might have posted to the wrong list.
I tried to install the latest autopackage of Inkscape but it seems my glibc is too old (Requires GLIBC_2.4 - I have GLIBC_2.3.6 ... is it possible to release a GLIBC_2.3.6 autopackage?) and the package suggested I install from sources. When I try to compile the source, i get an error -
Yes, it should be possible. I've been a bit distracted lately and haven't put as much time into managing the deps for the autopackages. One thing that would certainly help is to get someone running a GLIBC_2.3 system to make the packages. Are you interested in learning how to do it?
ui/dialog/ocaldialogs.h:247: error: expected class-name before '{' token ui/dialog/ocaldialogs.h: In constructor 'Inkscape::UI::Dialog::FileListViewText::FileListViewText(guint, Inkscape::UI::Dialog::SVGPreview&, Gtk::Label&, Gtk::Button&)': ui/dialog/ocaldialogs.h:250: error: class 'Inkscape::UI::Dialog::FileListViewText' does not have any field named 'ListViewText'
I use Debian Etch (stable) so it seems compiling myself is my best option but I have tried with about 5 different source packages and the result is always the same (the package which created this error was 16060 but it is still there in 16148).
It appears we are using a widget from GTK2.10 even though I don't think we officially require 2.10 yet. Does anyone remember where we were on pushing to require newer GTK versions? (I'm waiting on a feature from GTK 2.12 :-) )
