I've tagged and uploaded inkscape-0.44.1pre1. This is the time to check it out and find problems before the final 0.44.1 release, as well as for any needed translation work to be done.

Let me know ASAP if you find a problem or have something that needs to go in for 0.44.1.

I didn't realise that the packaging updates that JiHo and I did made it on to the 0.44 branch. That's a good thing, so thanks for doing that. Unfortunately though, one of the files has a bug in it that I had incorrectly fixed in the trunk. This will mean that OSX packagers won't be able to build the dmg file.

The bug is an incorrect argument to the '-srcfolder' option of a call to 'hdiutil' in the file 'packaging/macosx/osx-dmg.sh', it should be "$TMPDIR". So: /usr/bin/hdiutil create -srcfolder "$TMPDIR" -volname ...

Mental, could you please bring the file 'packaging/macosx/osx-dmg.sh' up to date with revision 12940 of the trunk, which has the correct fix I just checked in.

I have built Inkscape-0.44.1-1.PPC.dmg and added to to the downloads page. Someone else will need to build an Intel version if we're going to have a Universal Binaries again.

For anyone building a Mactel version: The PPC version was built with g++ 4.0.1 (build 5363) from Xcode 2.4, and an up-to-date fink unstable distribution, including all the same dependencies as required by the 0.44 version of inkscape in fink, with ssl versions of gnome-vfs2. Note: it depends on a few more of the optional dependencies than we had for our 0.44 dmg. Best to 'fink install inkscape' to make sure you have all of these before building.
