Hi,

I made it through some rough installing but need to know how to edit the PKG_CONFIG_PATH to detect fontconfig and xft. A previous post says:

...

1. untar the inkscape-0.37 so that you have the [inkscape-0.37] folder.
2. change to that folder and issue

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig; export PKG_CONFIG_PATH

...

(assuming that your libsigc++-1.2.pc is in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig folder) 3) after that, issue ./configure and so on.

I tried issuing the previous commands, but they weren't found by UNIX. Any suggestions? Am i doing this correctly?

I'm running mac os x.

Ah, OS X sticks you with tcsh by default, which requires a different syntax for 2).

Instead of the above, I believe:

set PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig

will do the trick for you.

If not, try

setenv PKG_CONFIG_PATH /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
