Request MX-23: Inkscape 1.3.2 (Important bugfix release!) [Solved]

[Franky13]

It is recommended to update Inkscape from 1.3.1 as soon as possible.

Release Notes:
https://inkscape.org/release/inkscape-1.3.2/

THX for the warning ...

Stars, polygons, spirals, 3D boxes are now saved correctly (MR #6090)
:
Unfortunately any files you have saved as plain or optimized SVG will never be recoverable, as the shape metadata is irretrievably lost for those file types.

Thats a HEAVY bug

I immediately checked the inkscape releases in all supported upstream debian branches, SID ( ) and TRIXIE/Testing, BOOKWORM, BULLSEYE-(BACKPORTS) are still on 1.2.2 and hence NOT affected by this bug ! (as long as BUSTER, which is on 1.0.2).

Only MX 21.3 and MX 23.1 TEST repos offer(ed)? the BUGGY 1.3.1 release of inkscape

If you are using appImage or flatpak, plz check your version

Debian Experimental has 1.3, which is where I got the source for the first backport, then jumped ahead for 1.3.1.

I'll build 1.3.2 for test immediately.

There are two issues with distributed "inkman" extension directory structure inside Inkscape's DEB-package:

• Wrong tree structure actually has triple "/inkman/inkman/inkman/" inside "../extensions/":

  Code: Select all

  /./usr/share/inkscape/extensions/inkman/inkman/inkman/

  All the content of each "inkman" sub-directory should be moved to root "../extensions/inkman/" (and empty sub-directories should be deleted):

  Code: Select all

  /./usr/share/inkscape/extensions/inkman/

• Missing dependencies: "python3-requests" and "python3-appdir" (required by distributed "inkman" extension).
  Add them to "Depends" list inside "control".

Should be reported to Debian as a bug, then, so they can fix it.
