This is still a problem in the Kubuntu Jaunty beta even on i386. Note
this used to work in one of the earlier releases (Hardy? it was a
version that _didn't_ use Cairo for PDF export, no version using Cairo
has worked properly), and I routinely SSH my files to a machine running
an older Kubuntu release when I generate PDFs in inkscape.

EPS doesn't support transparency, so you don't expect it to work there.
But PDF 1.4 does, and so this should work.

Furthermore, the expected "failure" mode would be to make the object
opaque, but instead the object is simply missing from the PDF. Another
example (rendered from Jaunty) is attached, including the SVG file.

For me this is easily the #1 problem with Inkscape in Kubuntu. From some
googling around I did a while ago, it seems to work properly for users
of other distributions, however.
