Bart,
Go to that location instead and get the official SuSE rpms. Many people
have been stung with the ULB files and I would recommend you staying
away from them. You can easily update your 9.1 Gnome with simply:
rpm -Fhv *.rpm
There is a Readme file there as well, please read that first. These
should provide you what you need to compile the new inkscape, although I
haven't had any luck yet on my 9.2 setup. Seems they have it looking
for some files in odd places and it errors out right now. I just
haven't put anymore time into it yet to lead it to all of them. I
suspect you will have to do the same.
