I have installed the autopackage distribution of Inkscape .44pre2 on Ubuntu 6.06.
It works great - I enjoy the new icons, cloning, and the export to .xcf with layers and there looks like there is much more I could use with some more exploration. After the summer of code comes back with their projects for Gimp, I should be able to do more advanced design on Linux than on my Mac. And not long after that we will have Xara 1.0. I will have a hard time deciding whether to do more with Xara or Inkscape. Excellent progress.
Anyway, how do I upgrade the autopackage when the final .44 comes out? Do I need to uninstall the old one and then reinstall the new one or do I just install the new package?
When installing the new package you should see a note similar to "Package already installed... Uninstalling." I have never had a problem installing the inkscape autopackage over itself. I've installed it hundreds of times. :-)
