I can sort out the ppa build in the next couple of days if no one gets there first. The only issue is that builds with mesh enabled will not work nativity for any stable ubuntu release because cairo 12 only appears in ubuntu 12.10. We will either need to drop support for all stable versions of ubuntu or adopt the packaging of Cairo 12 in the ppa.
It would be possible to package two separate builds independently but it might get a bit messy. On May 23, 2012 7:49 PM, "Tavmjong Bah" <tavmjong@...8...> wrote:

Hi,
My Mesh branch suffered from serious bit rot. This is good asit shows
how fast Inkscape code is progressing. But it also required several
days
of work to get the mesh branch in sync... not so good. I have thus merged the branch with trunk so I won't have to go through this pain again. One major change I made was to create a separate Mesh tool. The editing mode for meshes is significantly different from that for linear and radial gradients that I think this makes the most sense.
What would be your recommendation regarding PPA builds? Enable or disable the feature?
I would leave it up to the PPA users... I shouldn't hurt as long as users realize that it is experimental. I don't suppose one can have two builds, one with it enabled (and named inkscape_experimental) and one not.
