I run debian unstable. I installed inkscape 0.41 from the official packages and from sources around 10 times now. And I always get the same window at the beginning:
The failed extensions have been skipped. Inkscape will continue to run normally but those extensions will be unavailable. For details to troubleshoot this problem, please refer to the error log located at: /home/sunny/.inkscape/extension-errors.log
one by one i found all the dependencies until I have left two of them:
Extension "Grid" failed to load because a dependency was not met. Dependency:: type: plugin location: path string: grid
Extension "GIMP Gradients" failed to load because a dependency was not met. Dependency:: type: plugin location: path string: gimpgrad
On the other hand I don't get to see the effects menu, so i have no effects at all ¿is it because of these two extensions? I followed http://www.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?GettingEffectsWorking or tried because in inkscapre prefs, misc, i don't have "Enable script effects". I set it manually in preferences.xml adding show-effects-menu="1" to no effect. I installed python, python-xml, perl, libxml-xql-perl. I did ./configure --with-perl --with-python and recognized them perfect. ¿am I missing something?
I noticed this two are the only one plugins out of all listed in the extensions directory.
I am quite new at Linux, and I don't know what else to try.

I am running sid at home. Same experience. I don't know what is needed to make these plugins work. But I haven't tried yet. Hopefully Ted Gould will see this message and have some words of advice for us.

For effects and the effects menu to work you will need to build from recent CVS sources.

Those configure options enable embedded interpreters for future features. Currently the effects written in perl and python use external interpreters.

Hello, folks!
Interesting... can anyone tell me where to obtain these "strings": wmf2svg and pstoedit. Are they part of devel packages?
Thanks.

pstoedit actively uses separately available plugins, some of them are non-free, including this one, IIRC

Thanks... I got pstoedit, installed it, and Inkscape error log is happier. That wmf2svg is the one I'm really interested in, being an old Windows graphic designer I have 1000s of WMFs to convert and use in my present web and mail list activities.
Will continue to seek out the wmf2svg "filter".
