Hi all,
I just updated Inkscape's copy to the latest 2geom svn rev. I tried to add the GSL dependency to configure.ac but have no way to check whether it has gone wrong or not.
I am very sorry if this breaks your build :-(

It seems to work I succeeded in building inkscape successfully. Moreover I removed the gsl package from my system and then I run the configure script which correctly pointed me out the lack of the gsl package. I can't help more, I know nothing about autotools.
Regards, Marco

Thanks for testing Marco.
Hi Johan, I played a bit with your new "grid maker" LPE and it looks really promising.

You didn't specify a version. Does this mean it works with every version of GSL ever released? What's the oldest version that the code works correctly with? How old is this version? Which versions of which Linux distros does it stop us from being compatible with?
Adding a new dependency is a lot of work.

Please don't do this. If you can't test it, don't check it in. Make a patch and submit a bug.
It's more understandable that people running Linux don't check the Windows build because it would cost them literally hundreds of dollars to do so. Not testing on Linux is just a matter of effort.

I tested it against GSL 1.9.2 on a Mandriva Linux 2008 distro. I suspect that it works with erlier GSL release too.

So... should we back these revisions out? It doesn't seem like the dependency is something we know much about.

Hi Johan, I'm building this now on debian sid - required build-dep: ii libgsl0-dev 1.11-2 GNU Scientific Library (GSL) -- development package
Install deps: ii gsl-bin 1.11-2 GNU Scientific Library (GSL) -- binary package ii libgsl0ldbl 1.11-2 GNU Scientific Library (GSL) -- library package
(just figured it was worth mentioning seeing as its debian package is not named the same)
Hopefully I'll have some testing results in the next few days... regardless, you'll hear from me if it's broken ;)
Regards, Bernie
