Bug#802164: inkscape: FTBFS on hppa since switch to gcc-5

[Alex Valavanis]

Yes, sorry for the mistakes... it should indeed be CXXFLAGS, and the string
should not be quoted.


Best wishes,

Bug#802164: inkscape: FTBFS on hppa since switch to gcc-5

[Alex Valavanis]

Hi All,

Just a quick note that we're planning upstream to switch to require a
C++11 compliant compiler.  This is needed for compatibility with new
versions of the GNOME development libraries.  We'll hopefully switch
in time for Inkscape 0.92.

Best wishes,


Alex

Bug#802164: inkscape: FTBFS on hppa since switch to gcc-5

[Alex Valavanis]

Hi Mattia,

Sorry... hit Reply instead of Reply All.  The fix could just be
applied in debian/rules if you don't want to patch the upstream
source.  You should just be able to add CFLAGS+=" -std=c++11", I
guess.  The current release (and all future ones) should already be
compatible with the C++11 standard, although we don't yet require it.

Best wishes,


Alex

Bug#776857: Inkscape: Please enable dh_auto_test

Package: Inkscape

Hi there,

Since upstream version 0.91, Inkscape should now pass a make check
successfully.  I guess the override_dh_auto_test rule should now be
removed from debian/rules.

 In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:

   * 05-freetype-include.patch: Use freetype upstream's recommended include.

 Freetype's include structure has moved around a bit and, according to
 bug #731015, the only supported and stable API for freetype includes is
 the one I've employed in this patch.  This should be suitable to send
 upstream as well.

Bug#720618: non-free license statement in /usr/share/inkscape/icons/inkscape.svg

[Alex Valavanis]

I think this is fixed upstream... all CC 2.0/2.5 licenses have been
removed from Inkscape trunk [1].  Can a patch be backported?

 I don't think so. The logo was contributed by jimmac and originally
 under CC. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/345778

  Severity: serious
 
  that the Inkscape icon contains a statement suggesting that its
  license is CC-BY-SA 2.0.  This is unfortunate, as Debian's FTP team
  does not consider it Free.

 I'm unsure about this. I remember an old thread on -project where it
 was found that clause 4b of CC-BY-SA 2.0 allows upgrading to later
 version, and several packages already fit in that case.
 I think we are in the same case.

 Moreover, I can still get in touch with jimmac and ask for a license
 change, or just apply clause 4b upstream.

 4b only applies to derivitive works. I don't know who made this rumor,
 but it's resulted in a few REJECTs.

 Cheers,
Paul

Bug#690858: grace: source-hardening.diff breaks SVG output formatting

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: Grace
Version: 1:5.1.22-13

Hi Nicholas,

The recent source-hardening.diff patch appears to break SVG output
formatting.  Please see the original bug report in Ubuntu [1].

In particular, take a look at the output obtained when running:

gracebat -hardcopy -hdevice SVG

I have attached a pair of files good.svg (from unpatched grace
source), and bad.svg (with source-hardening.diff applied).  In the
bad.svg file, take a look at the end of the text
style=font-family:' lines... the contents of the tag is malformed
e.g. 0.2)0.2 on line 37 instead of just 0.2.

The relevant section of the source-hardening.diff patch is as follows.
 Perhaps it's just that the format string is incorrect?  At first
glance, it looks like it should be just %s rather than %s%s
because only one string is being passed to fprintf.

Thanks,


Alex

I think it looks pretty similar to this upstream bug:

Please could you try to obtain a backtrace of the crash?
Alternatively, please could you try out a newer version of the

 Severity: normal

 Hello,

 I cannot search the Open Clip Art library in Inkscape. Here are the
 steps to follow to reproduce the bug (100% reproducibility on my
 machine), with the console outputs (my comments are preceeded by a #):

 $ inkscape
 # Click menu “File” -- “Import from Open Clip Art” -- type something
 # in the search box, click “Search”.
 # The name of a (single) found image appears in the images' list.
 Emergency save activated!
 Emergency save completed. Inkscape will close now.
 If you can reproduce this crash, please file a bug at www.inkscape.org
 with a detailed description of the steps leading to the crash, so we can fix 
 it.
 # X dialog appears: “Inkscape a subi une erreur interne et va se fermer
 # maintenant.” (approximate translation: “An internal error occured,
 # Inkscape will end now.”)
 # Click the “Close” button.
 zsh: segmentation fault  inkscape

 Attached is a partial strace, from right before the crash to the console
 messages (there is some more stuff after, but it did not seem very
 relevant). I did not include the full strace because it is extremely
 verbose due to all the mouse events, but if you need it I can generate
 one.

 Please don't hesitate to ask if you need more information.

 Cheers,
  Matteo

Bug#673834: New upstream version available 5.0

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: espresso

A new upstream version (5.0) was released on 17 May 2012.  Please
consider updating the Debian package. Upstream changelog is as
follows:

New in 5.0 version

   * More ways of calculating electron-phonon coefficients.
   * Full DFT+U scheme (with J and additional parameters) implemented.
 Should work also for fully-relativistic calculations.
   * band parallelization for Green function sum in EXX (memory replication).

Incompatible changes in 5.0 version:

   * Postprocessing codes dos.x, bands.x, projwfc.x, now use
 namelist dos, bands, projwfc respectively, instead of inputpp
   * Directory reorganization: whole packages into subdirectories,
 almost nothing is in the same directory where it used to be.
   * atomic masses in the code are in amu unless otherwise stated
   * Options 'cubic'/'hexagonal' to CELL_PARAMETERS removed: it is no
 longer useful, the code will anyway find the correct sym.ops.
   * Options 'bohr'/'angstrom'/'alat' to CELL_PARAMETERS implemented
   * -DEXX no longer required for exact exchange or hybrid functionals
   * PHonon: input variable 'elph' replaced by 'electron_phonon'

Fixed in 5.0 version

   * Missing checks for unimplemented cases with electric fields
   * CP with electric fields wasn't working any longer in parallel
 due to an unallocated variable
   * VERY NASTY bug: exchange-correlation keyword 'PW91' was incorrectly
 interpreted (PZ LDA instead of PW) in all 4.3.x versions
   * A few glitches when the standard input is copied to file
   * PW: LDA+U crash in the final step of a vc-relax run, due to a
 premature deallocation of a variable
   * PW: constraint 'atomic direction' on noncolinear magnetization
 wasn't working properly
   * PW: tetrahedra were not working with magnetic symmetries,
 and not yet working in the noncolinear case as well.
   * Velocity rescaling in variable-cell MD wasn't really working
   * Workaround for frequent crashes in PAW with vc-relax
   * In some cases spin-polarized HSE was yielding NaN's
   * Two instances of an array not always allocated passed as variable to
 routine (init_start_k and dynmatrix.f90) - harmless but not nice
   * disk_io='low' or 'none' wasn't working if a wavefunction file from a
 previous run was found
   * CP + OpenMP without MPI wasn't working with ultrasoft pseudopotentials
   * Bug in CASINO to UPF converter
   * Bug in k-point generation in the noncollinear case
   * ESM with spin polarization fixed
   * Weird problem with irreps in PHonon
   * Bug in turbo_lanczos.x . Restarts of polarizations other than ipol=1
 or ipol=4 were not working properly due to buggy test_restart routine.

Best wishes,


Alex

Bug#670613: Grace should recommend xfont packages

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: grace
Version: 1:5.1.22-12
Severity: minor

Grace should recommend the xfonts-100dpi or xfonts-75dpi packages.
Without either of these installed (and after an X restart), the window
font is loaded incorrectly, and the Warning: Cannot convert string
-*-helvetica-medium-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-* to type FontStruct
message is dumped to the terminal.

Please consider adding the following to debian/control:

Recommends: xfonts-100dpi | xfonts-75dpi

Bug#670613: Grace should recommend xfont packages

[Alex Valavanis]

Hi Nicholas,

I guess this is an Ubuntu-specific issue then...

As of xorg_1:7.6+7ubuntu1, the xfonts-100dpi and xfonts-75dpi packages
were dropped from Depends to Suggests,[1] and therefore they do
not appear in a standard Ubuntu installation.

Not really sure how to proceed with this... we could fork the grace
package for Ubuntu, but I suspect there's a better way!

Best wishes,


AV

 I am not convinced this is a useful fix.  The xorg metapackage already Depends
 on these packages, and a desktop system without them *and* without a remote
 font server is pretty much broken by the user deliberately.  (There are also
 -transcoded variants to consider.)  Although nearly any X package requires
 fonts to operate properly, almost none have such fonts-related Recommends[*], 
 as
 those should be handled either by xorg or the corresponding metapackage for 
 the
 user's WM of choice.

Bug#633150: List of fixed bugs

[Alex Valavanis]

Hi Wolfi,

As requested, here is a list of Debian bugs that have been fixed since
the last package release:

bug #627637 JessyInk: Embedded Javascript Broken - 0.48.3
bug #559332 [inkscape] Cairo rendering broken for use elements with
scaling or a viewBox - 0.48.2
bug #596836 clipart search spews messages in console - 0.48.2
bug #628035 inkscape: in the pdf export dialog a wrong pdf version is
reported - 0.48.2
bug #651196 French manpage has accents replaced by some garbage - 0.48.3

Many other issues have been fixed, but I think these are the only ones
in the Debian tracker.

Bug#642260: mpb uses deprecated scm_must_malloc() function

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: mpb
Version: 1.4.2-16

Forwarded from Ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mpb/+bug/855044

Guile returns a deprecation warning whenever mpb is executed. This
occurs because since guile-1.8, the scm_must_malloc() function has
been replaced by scm_gc_malloc().

In fact, scm_must_malloc just returns a pointer to the scm_gc_malloc
function, so this problem could be solved by a very simple
find/replace patch. A better solution would involve using the
scm_effective_version() function to provide backward compatibility
with guile-1.6.

Bug#563817: inkscape: package requires large numbers of unnecessary packages

[Alex Valavanis]

Hi John,

I'm looking through some of the old bug reports for Inkscape in
Debian.  You reported the following some time ago:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=563817

We can only really deal with the direct dependencies... everything
else is brought in indirectly via another package.  Of the packages
you mentioned, we have:

aspell (Recommended by Inkscape): Needed for spellchecker functionality

perlmagick (Recommended by Inkscape):

pstoedit (Recommended by Inkscape):

It might be worth double-checking the status of the perlmagick and
pstoedit dependencies.

Bug#459638: inkscape displays and exports Helvetica R wrong

[Alex Valavanis]

tags 459638 moreinfo
thanks

Hi Andreas,

I am checking up on a few old Debian bugs.  You reported the
following: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=459638

I think this is likely to be a pstoedit issue...

* When I try the SVG file you attached, I can reproduce the bug... the
font appears incorrectly in Inkscape, eog and rsvg-view.

This is apparently because the SVG text element contains the CSS style
attribute: font-family:'Helvetica',sans-serif.  The Helvetica font
specification is quoted.  If you get rid of the quotation marks, the
font appears correctly in all three viewers.

* When I generate the SVG file myself, using pstoedit 3.50-3, I find
that the font appears correctly in all three viewers.  Here, the
font-family attribute is used directly inside the text element, and
the font name is not quoted.

Please could you let me know if you still experience the problem with
a newer version of pstoedit?

Thanks,


Alex

Bug#635244: Package description is not user friendly

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: inkscape
Version: 0.48.1-2.1

Forwarded from Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/inkscape/+bug/811634

The package description for Inkscape is not very user-friendly. It
includes the names of several technical packages, has a lot of
specific (and mostly irrelevant) technical information and does not
focus on tasks that the user might want to perform. The package
description should be updated, following the advice given in the
Packaging Guide:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Howtos/UsefulDescription

This will make it more likely that non-technical users looking for a
vector editor will find Inkscape.

Suggested description:

Inkscape is an illustration editor which has everything you need to
create professional-quality computer art. You can use it to make
diagrams and illustrations, technical drawings, web graphics, clip
art, icons and logos. A collection of hands-on tutorials show you how
to combine lines, shapes, and text of different types and styles to
build up a picture.

A selection of powerful vector graphics editing tools comes as
standard. There is excellent support for paths, gradients, layers,
alpha transparency, and text flow control. An extensive library of
filters allow you to apply realistic effects, and extensions allow you
to work with bitmaps, barcodes and printing marks, amongst other
things.

Most of the common vector formats are supported, including PDF, Adobe
Illustrator and AutoCAD files, and it has unrivalled support for the
SVG web graphics standard.

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: inkscape
Version: 0.48.1-2
Severity: minor

Hi Wolfi,

As far as I can tell, Inkscape no longer uses skencil for any of its

statement for it.  Also, python will be available as a standard
package, so there is no need to suggest it either.

Hi Johannes,

Thanks for reporting this.  I can confirm that the problem also exists
downstream in Ubuntu.  Essentially the problem arose because there
were a number of scripts with missing shebang (#!) lines.  An
initial proposal was made for a patch upstream to fix this, and the
patch has been added to the Debian package as
02-add-shebangs-and-fix-permissions.dpatch.  However, this initial
draft of the patch mistakenly added shebangs to the JessyInk scripts
which are only ever supposed to be embedded in SVG files.  The patch
that was finally applied upstream corrected this mistake.

Thanks,


Alex

 Hello, Alex! Thanks for your responsiveness!

 I believe it has been fixed!

 Unless I'm the only squeeze user to be affected, this is a very
 important fix to be proposed, because inkscape has crashed about five
 times this evening, and I had data loss not only once.

 Thank you and best regards!

Bug#626419: create-resources: Name: header is missing in several swatch files

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: create-resources

Several of the swatches in the create-resources package do not contain

its palette menu.

The headers should be added to all the following swatch files:

Hi Pieter,

I'm not sure how you check if your clipboard is being monitored.
There is a list of software that is known to cause problems in the

Do you see anything there that you recognise?

Bug#625624: grace: xmgrace crashes with mouse operations in dropdown list

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: grace
Version: 1:5.1.22-9
Severity: important

I finally figured out a reliable way to reproduce a bug that has
haunted me for months...

== Example crash trigger ==
* Select the Plot-Graph appearance... menu item
* Select the Main tab
* In the Presentation group, press the left-mouse button on the
Type drop-down menu.  **Do not release the mouse button!**
* While continuing to hold the left-mouse button down, click (and
release) the middle mouse-button on any option in the list.
 The drop-down menu disappears
* Move the mouse cursor above the drop-down menu.  Now (finally!)
release the left mouse button.
 Grace crashes with the attached backtrace

This is reproducible with *any* drop-down menu.  Also, the crash
occurs even if the left-mouse button is released over a different
menu.  In general, this is the sequence needed to reproduce the crash:
* Left-mouse-down on any drop-down menu
* Middle-mouse-click on any menu option
* Left-mouse-up on any drop-down menu

This bug was originally reported in Ubuntu, but I can reproduce it in
Debian Squeeze as described above.  Please see the downstream report
at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grace/+bug/777210

Thanks,


Alex

Bug#624752: scidavis: Help viewer does not load

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: scidavis
Version: 0.2.4-3

Hi Ruben,

Thanks for the recent update to the package.  Really, I think you
should recommend qt-assistant-compat in debian/control.  Scidavis
still runs OK without it, but the help viewer does not work.  The
typical user would expect the Help menu item to just work so I
think that Recommends: qt-assistant-compat is a good option.

Hi Wolfi,

Just a quick heads up... Inkscape will fail to build with gcc 4.6,
which I guess will cause problems in Wheezy.  An upstream patch is
available, but I think a couple of tweaks may be necessary for the
Debian/Ubuntu package to be fixed.

Hi Mathijs,

I'm just checking up on a bug report you made against inkscape in
Debian a long time ago:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=384314

I am no longer able to reproduce the problem, in Debian stable

inkscape_0.48.1-2ubuntu2, so hopefully the issue is now fixed.  Please
can you let me know whether you still experience this bug?  If not,
I'll mark it as fixed.

* Bind DefaultAct to BtnUp and BtnDown on the textWidget (like it is for
  the matrix) to disentangle it from the label activation.
* When the selectCellCB is triggered the row, col are now those of the cell
  being edited when the event is a keyboard event
* Replace the clickEventHandler by a new action Label()
* Ungrab the pointer if the pointer is released over a cell widget or
  a scrollbar when resizing a row/column.
* Allow all actions to be bound to cell widgets, not just editcell
* Dont free cell pixmaps when a row/column is removed
* Improve font selection fallback when a tag can't be found
* Store textChild and userWidgets row/col in constraint resources
* Rework event row/col localisation again
* Put static XrmQuarks in Class record to simplify their initialisation
* Start to drag-select only if the first parameter to ScrollSelectACT
is PointerExtend,
  then on subsequent calls to selectCellCB pass all parameters given
to the action
  with the first one replaced by Extend

OK, I have done a little research on this.  It looks like this bug is
caused by libgc being compiled without large-config support.  It isn't
actually a bug in the Inkscape code.

The upstream developers fixed it for Windows users by compiling libgc
in their windows development libraries with large-config support.  The
bug is not fixed for users on other platforms.

Bug#618835: inkscape: Barcode - Datamatrix dialog gives errors with live preview and bad row/col count

Confirmed in inkscape_0.48.1ubuntu2.  Looking at the extension script,
only a finite set of row/col combinations are valid.  It's not a good
idea for Inkscape to use spin buttons  live preview!

 I just tried Extensions  Render  Barcode - Datamatrix

 I checked Live preview and clicked the spin buttons for Rows to
 see the images grow.

 When i hit Rows == 19, a new dialog box popped up, with this
 message:

 It seems to me that the spin buttons shouldn't allow the user to
 choose bad values (e.g. enforce a range), but i don't know enough
 about datamatrix to know if that's acceptable or not in a 2-D
 constraint.  For example, maybe 200x200 is OK, but 200x10 is not.  if
 that was the case, then starting with 10x10, you'd have no way to get
 to 200x200.

 So maybe the right fix is for the live preview to simply disable
 itself when the dimensions are unacceptable, with an in-window display
 of why it's not working.

Bug#553456: inkscape: complains about UniConvertor

[Alex Valavanis]

Hi Marco,

The bug actually is triggered by a few different programs that monitor
the clipboard, not just by xfce4-clipman-plugin.  Please see the list
in the upstream report.

Thanks,


Alex

 I've found that This error appears when xfce4-clipman-plugin. If you close

 I think the problem is not Inkscape, but clipman plugin in this case. It
 also makes mousepad fail to Find  Replace properly:
 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=612005

 So it's something to inform the XFCE Team.

Bug#614102: grace: Upstream Makefile strips debugging symbols before debian debug packages can be made

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: grace
Version: 1:5.1.22-9

Hi Nicholas,

I reported a bug against the grace package in Ubuntu, and I'm
forwarding it to you in case it is of interest to Debian...

When the grace package is built in Ubuntu, a ddeb package is supposed
to be generated by the dh_strip command (with pkg-create-dbgsym). The
grace Makefile, however, strips the grace executable before
pkg-create-dbgsym gets a chance!

As a result, there is no easy way for Ubuntu users to run a decent
backtrace on grace segfaults.

This can be fixed by patching the makefile to remove the -s flag
from the install command.

Thanks,


Alex

 Yes, that -s isn't really necessary, though it's not a Debian bug per se (no
 auto-generated debug packages yet... one day!). I'll patch it out the next
 time
 I make an upload.

Bug#614152: grace: build against external libxbae

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: grace
Version: 1:5.1.22-9
Severity: wishlist

Hi Nicholas,

Any thoughts about whether it's best to build grace against the Debian
package of libxbae-dev, or the internal bundled version of the
library?  The grace source package currently states that it is not
recommended to use the upstream Xbae package owing to the presence of
several bugs.  However, there have been a few new releases of the
upstream version since the version in Grace (4.7), which have fixed a
lot of bugs...

Given that development of Grace and Xbae have both been a little slow
over the last few years, I guess it would be worth assessing which
version of Xbae is more reliable.

Thanks,


Alex

Bug#446688: inkscape: No letter spacing, incorrect glyphs in some fonts

Dear all,

I'm taking a look at old bug reports against the Inkscape package in
Debian.  Please could you let me know if you still experience the
problems with incorrect rendering of default text in SVG documents
exported from xfig and chemtool?  The original report can be found at
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=446688

I am unable to reproduce the bug using inkscape_0.48.0-1ubuntu1
(essentially identical to 0.48.0-1 in Debian).  I have attached sample
chemtool (Helvetica) and xfig (Times) files, and the exported SVGs.
Both SVGs render correctly for me in Inkscape.

If you still experience the problem, please could you attach a sample file?

Thanks,


Alex

Bug#385167: Should not show the bitmapped fonts in the font menu or should be be fixed to be able to work with such fonts thanks

[Alex Valavanis]

Hi Anton,

Thanks very much for the extra info (and for teaching me something
about font handling!).  I can now confirm this in
inkscape_0.48.1-0ubuntu1

After removing 70-no-bitmaps.conf and installing xfonts-terminus, I
can see the Terminus font in the Inkscape fonts dropdown list.
However, when I attempt to select it, Inkscape falls back to the
default Sans.

Thanks,


Alex

 From what I can see, version 0.47.0-2+b1 of inkscape (Debian) displays
 the bitmap fonts in its font sellection menu if these fonts are not
 disabled.  However, nothing bad happens if the user chooses a bitmapped
 font -- in this case inkskape falls back to a scalable font.  It would
 be better to remove completely the bitmapped fonts from this menu, but
 the current behaviour is also acceptable (in my opinion).

 I am unable to test this easily, because I am using Ubuntu, in which
 bitmap fonts are disabled by default.

 You can remove temporarily /etc/fonts/conf.avail/70-no-bitmaps.conf if
 you want to enable the bitmap fonts.  In Debian these fonts are also
 disabled except for the Terminus font.  I suppose in Ubuntu the Terminus
 font is also allowed (package xfonts-terminus) as this font is still
 useful for terminal emulators (xterm, etc.) and text editors (Emacs,
 gedit, etc.).

Bug#611950: grace: upstream changelog is installed with incorrect name

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: grace
Version: 1:5.1.22-9
Severity: minor

Hi Nicholas,

A local build of grace_5.1.22-9 in Ubuntu raised the lintian warning:
wrong-name-for-upstream-changelog.

This occurs because Debian policy dictates that the upstream changelog
should be installed to /usr/share/doc/grace/changelog.gz but we
install it to /usr/share/doc/grace/CHANGES.html. The relevant policy
section can be found at
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#s-changelogs

I believe the reason why this is happening, is that we include the
HTML version of the upstream changelog in the debian/grace.docs file
in the source package which is parsed by dh_installdocs. Instead, we
should use dh_installchangelogs to create a compressed, plain-text
copy of the changelog.

I have attached a copy of the debdiff I submitted to Ubuntu, which I
believe solves the problem.

Thanks,


Alex

Hi Ambrose,

I have asked upstream for help with this report.  Please could you

Comments from upstream as follows:

example SVG file would be helpful
a) Possibly related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/452102
b) reproduced with visual bbox and square caps with horizontal line
c) OTOH, depending on the chosen bbox mode, the reference point when
scaling with the mouse is not the node itself but the opposite corner of
the bounding box. therefore the angle and node position has to change if
the visual bbox of a stroked line is scaled. To avoid, use the geometric
bbox mode or scale the line segment using the node tool.

It's a pity, but I'm closing this. Alt+D for Datei seems to be usual

Bug#609960: qtiplot depends on transitonal sip4 packages

[Alex Valavanis]

Package: qtiplot
User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com
Usertags: origin-ubuntu natty ubuntu-patch
Version: 0.9.8.2-1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

python-sip4 is a transitional package which depends upon python-sip. Its
description states that It can be safely removed.

The qtiplot package therefore needs to be updated, to depend upon python-sip
rather than python-sip4.

There are also a couple of redundant build dependencies:

sip4 - python-sip-dev
python-sip4-dev - python-sip-dev

In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:

  * debian/control: Update sip dependencies to avoid using transitional
packages (LP: #702853)

Thanks for considering the patch.

Hi Ryo,

Did you see the comment in the upstream tracker: Does it help if you
toggle on the sticky zoom (upper right corner of the canvas, or
'Inkscape Preferences  Windows  Miscellaneous: [x] Zoom when window
is resized) and reopen the EPS file in a new window?

If I open the EPS file, select the sticky zoom as described above
and then maximise the window, the drawing remains a sensible size.  Is
this the case for you too?

Thanks,


Alex

 OK, that's not a bad workaround. Thanks.  When you get lost in that

Bug#579853: inkscape: PNG export does not work

[Alex Valavanis]

tags 579853 = moreinfo
thanks

Hi Mathieu,

I have tried this again using inkscape_0.48.0-1ubuntu2.  If I export
the image with the default resolution of 90 dpi, then the dotted line
disappears.  However, if I repeat this with 600 dpi the image exports
correctly.

I don't think this is really a bug in Inkscape.  When you export at 90
dpi, you will only see features with sizes greater than ~0.011 inches.
 The dotted line in your drawing is set at a width of 0.01 inch, so
that is why you can't see it in the exported PNG.

Please can you confirm that the problem goes away if you increase the
export resolution?

Thanks,


Alex
