Hello:

I checked out and built Inkscape 0.49x on Ubuntu following the Guide's instructions

http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/CompilingUbuntu

I assume you went ahead and got the sources from Bazaar?

But when I run the program from the non-standard location, the 0.48x version pops up (the one instaleed with the repo manager)

What env vars do I have to set/modify to run the program from the non-default location. Or does 0.49x has the wrong version being reported ?

Did you "install" it, or did you just build it and then ran it from the directory in which you built it? In the latter case, did you try ./inkscape instead of inkscape (in the directory where the Inkscape executable was built)? If you did install it, try explicitly specifying the path, so try running something like /usr/bin/inkscape (or wherever you installed it). If you just try running "inkscape", you might pick up the wrong one (if it's earlier in your PATH).

BTW, I think the revision number in the about dialog should be up-to-date, so you can try checking that.
