Re: [Inkscape-user] Best Linux for version 46

Inkscape version 46 requires many updated libraries. I have a main Slackware partition that lacks many libraries altogether. I installed Debian on a spare partition but some libraries were obsolete. Plus I had to go through build-install just to get the needed compiler. And there is an elusive XML Perl module that most distros don't have.

So here is my question: is there a Linux distro that has the requirements for compiling Inkscape 46 without requiring me to chase all over the internet looking for the bits and pieces? I don't care if it is stable or unstable.

Ubuntu, by far.

First: sudo apt-get build-dep inkscape Then compile inkscape.
