After doing what you suggested, here is what I have now: % fink list -i svg Information about 5043 packages read in 1 seconds. i librsvg2 2.9.5-11 SAX-based render library for SVG files i librsvg2-gtk 2.9.5-11 Enable GTK to use SVG data i librsvg2-shlibs 2.9.5-11 SAX-based render library for SVG files (I added the first one later). The problem didn't get fixed after either of these was installed. I also tried rebuilding and reinstalling inkscape, without success. This is all being done on my Intel machine right now. I doubt that the ksvg package should be needed... so I'm still stuck without SVG. Jens ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
