Because I tried to background reportbug one time and thought that the mail was
not sent.
Sorry for the noise :-(

I prepared a package of the newly released inkscape 0.48.0 and tried to build
openclipart using that. Without my patch I could not do the build due to the
oversized logfile, with my patch the build finished the stages which involved
inkscape in a much shorter time with a logfile of about 3.9 MB. I had to
interrupt the build though, since in a later stage gengal.bin from
openoffice.org-dev used 4 GB RAM on my laptop which has only 2 GB physcal RAM
installed. Swapping was no fun here ;-)

From what I see now, building openclipart seems to work using my patch.
I'm not sure if inkscape 0.48 is necessary or not.

Thank you very much,
