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.
debian lenny now has 0.46 in its repositories. No messing about necessary - I got it recently on a normal update.
