The failure appears to be going on during the checking of extension dependencies. This could mean a number of things... Ted is going to have to give some advice here.
But here's something to try: First find where inkscape is installing the extensions. This will probably something like /usr/share/inkscape/extensions/. Next (as root) move aside the *.inx files (i.e. put them in a temporary directory), then run Inkscape and see if it starts up.
If so, then try putting the .inx files back one by one until you find the one that causes the problem. Then we can see where to go from there.

Okay. I took them all out, and tried to run inkscape, but nothing happened. As in zero, zilch, nada. The cursor just sat there on the line beneath the "inkscape" command. So I quit that, and put all the extensions back in. I then took them out one by one, and when I took out the one called "gimpgrad.inx", it again wouldn't do anything when I ran the "inkscape" command. So I believe we have a culprit, although I'm not entirely sure what I should do now.
Just out of interest, do you think this problem is specific to me, or would it happen to anyone using the RPM I built? Because if it would happen to anyone then I guess it's more serious.
