Hello Michael, I just downloaded 0.46 for Tiger, I am running 4.11 on a ppc and Inkscape will not start, on the file menu it offers options of quitting or hiding. I am a new user to Mac's, so I am probably doing something wrong. I have been trying for the last four days to get Inkscape running on either my ppc or my MacPro Intel . The Mac Pro dialog box states it will take several minutes to access the fonts. I let my machine run 24/4 and nothing happened, the app did not start.
I asked for help on the group but received no answers, I intend on using the svg portion to aid me in a vinyl sign cutting hobby. Any advice for a total new mac/open source user.
Thanks in advance Larry Housell larrynedi@...483...

Hello OSX Tiger users,
I have posted an Inkscape 0.46 package for Tiger (10.4.x) users: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/inkscape/ Inkscape-0.46-2.TIGER.UNIVERSAL.dmg
This package was built complete from a PPC 10.4.11 machine, and since I do not have access to an Intel Mac running 10.4.11 it has not been tested on Intel hardware. If you have an Intel 10.4.11 machine, could you please let me know if the package works for you?
Apologies for the initial lack of Inkscape 0.46 package for Tiger users. Producing packages for older OS releases is always more difficult when the Inkscape Mac developers are no longer using that OS for their normal builds, and building Universal packages, even more so!
(Our CompilingMacOsX wiki page is currently out of date, but will be shortly updated to reflect the steps used to build these official packages.)
Cheers, Michael
