Oh dear! A problem. It appears to download and install perfectly, but trying to run it gives the following error:
inkscape: error while loading shared libraries: libXfixes.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Using 'locate' confirms that this file is not there.
The file I am trying to install is:
inkscape200605290159.package
Version 0.43 works fine.
I am using mandrake 10.1
I tried this again with inkscape200606031924.package. Still the same result :(
Ok. Checking the dependancies in the latest package gives the following list.

libXfixes and libXext look new to me. I'll have to cross check with the 0.43 package to be sure.
Is there no libXfixes package available for Mandrake 10.1?
Is libXfixes a good candidate for static linking?
