Hi, I've build inkscape for SL4 - not the latest version (version 0.43, latest 0.45.1), because of dependencies. And it needs some other additional packages.
You find the RPMs here: http://linux.web.psi.ch/dist/scientific/4/psi/current/ http://linux.web.psi.ch/dist/scientific/4/others/current/ and the dependencies are: ============================================================================= Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================= Installing: inkscape i386 0.43-2.sl4.psi inkscape-0.43-2.sl4.psi.i386.rpm 26 M Installing for dependencies: gc i386 6.8-1.sl4.psi sl4psi 127 k glibmm24 i386 2.4.7-1.sl4.psi sl4psi 127 k gtkmm24 i386 2.4.11-1.sl4.psi sl4psi 887 k libsigc++20 i386 2.0.17-1.el4.rf sl4others 1.8 M the repositories are: [sl4others] name=SL 4 others baseurl=http://linux.web.psi.ch/dist/scientific/4/others/current/ [sl4psi] name=SL 4 psi baseurl=http://linux.web.psi.ch/dist/scientific/4/psi/current/ Urs Nathan Moore wrote: > Hi All, > > I'd like to install inkscape (http://www.inkscape.org/) on an i386 box > running SL 4.4.
