RE: [Inkscape-user] Help needed verifying bugs on Win32

Bryce, I would like to help with the Windows testing of Inkscape. I checked out the bug page on SourceForge. However, it is difficult to determine which bugs are for Windows and which are not. Is there a way we can get a Windows Bub list going. Then we'll try to knock those babies out.

Inkscape on DeviantART
by Joshua A. Andler 20 Jan '05

20 Jan '05

I have gone ahead and created an identity on deviantART (http://deviantart.com <http://deviantart.com/> ) for Inkscape (which is http://inkscape.deviantart.com <http://inkscape.deviantart.com/> ). First off, it's plain jane in the moment... but will look snazzier as of tomorrow... I had two things in mind when creating it... 1) I wanted to have an inkscape account where we can have links to peoples inkscape work on DA (essentially a central hub for IS on there) 2) I also wanted a place where we can potentially have people submit artwork/icons etc for the actual inkscape project. (since we apparently now have raw icon theme-ing in place) A limitation on the inkscape group is that for anyone that is involved with administration of it or a "member" of that group, we can not choose to make any of their personal artwork a group favorite. It's a stupid limitation but I can understand the rules... they don't want self-promotion through groups. But this is easy to resolve as it's really more of a communal place to hang out as opposed to a "club" or something (unless that's what people want). For those unfamiliar with DA, it lives up to the name and a significant portion of the work posted there is "devious" by some nature. We will do everything in our power to make the inkscape group as clean as possible and will never link to anything depraved or tasteless as well as most likely not anything containing nudity either. Given the slight potential for that being an issue, I think this is too good of a place to show off inkscape to pass up... given that it's the largest art community on the net. To get the ball rolling, if you are a member of DA and interested in this, please reply on the user-list (or directly to me via email if you prefer) with your DA username or a link to your gallery. My current goal is to have a good assortment of artwork to refer people to when we make the announcement about the next release in a few weeks. If you aren't a member on DA and use inkscape for anything even relatively creative... what are you waiting for? =) I will post a few favorites tonight of inkscape work I've run across on DA so far, so... the page should start looking a bit more interesting this evening. -Josh

The heuristic might guess it wrong. This is true and therefore `xgettext' knows about a special kind of comment which lets the programmer take over the decision. If in the same line as or the immediately preceding line to the `gettext' keyword the `xgettext' program finds a comment containing the words `xgettext:c-format', it will mark the string in any case with the `c-format' flag. This kind of comment should be used when `xgettext' does not recognize the string as a format string but it really is one and it should be tested. Please note that when the comment is in the same line as the `gettext' keyword, it must be before the string to be translated. [strip] `xgettext' of course could make a wrong decision the other way round, i.e. a string marked as a format string actually is not a format string. In this case the `msgfmt' might give too many warnings and would prevent translating the `.po' file. The method to prevent this wrong decision is similar to the one used above, only the comment to use must contain the string `xgettext:no-c-format'. -------[ end of inserted text ]---------------------------------~-> So what? Please fix "%" in msgids to some non c-format string. -- URKE MMI :: blog.urosevic.net :: ICQ 104794867 RLU 280650 :: Slackware GNU/Linux

Mac User needed to test a patch
by Bryce Harrington 17 Jan '05

17 Jan '05

We've had a patch sitting around for the better part of a year that implements a Mac OS X Inkscape Launcher. Unfortunately, none of the developers have a Mac on hand to test out the patch. Can someone with a Mac volunteer to test this patch for us? You need to know how to patch and recompile Inkscape on Mac. The patch is here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=935246&group_id=93… If you have trouble applying the patch, please report issues on that tracker item.

Latest Autopackage
by Aaron Spike 16 Jan '05

16 Jan '05

The Autopackage build linked from inkscape.org seems to be dated December 20, 2004. Is this the latest Autopackage? I got the idea from inkscape.org that those builds were nightly. Perhaps the wording should be changed, if they are not. Aaron Spike
