To get the 2.4 version of gtkmm:
* If you have not already done so, <a href="http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=5#doc_chap2">set up a portage overlay</a>.
 
* <a href="http://inkscape.org/doc/inkscape-cvs-0.42.ebuild">Download</a> and save the ebuild to media-gfx/inkscape-cvs/inkscape-cvs-0.42.ebuild inside your portage overlay (you will need to create those directories if you haven't already done so).
emerge sync
* Open a console and as root run 'ebuild <portage overlay>/media-gfx/inkscape-cvs/inkscape-cvs-0.42.ebuild digest' (substitute <portage overlay> with your portage overlay directory
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge gtkmm
* Now run 'echo "media-gfx/inkscape-cvs ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords' (change "~x86" for whatever architecture you're on).
 
* Now you can simply run 'emerge inkscape-cvs' to get the latest CVS version of Inkscape!
==== Gentoo CVS Ebuild ready ! ====
 
Hi there,
 
This afternoon I decided to make an ebuild for the CVS of inkscape for gentoo users !
 
''To use it:''
 
* <a href="http://www.inkscape.org/doc/inkscape-1.0.ebuild">Download it</a> (pretty obvious isn't it ? :)
* Copy the file into /usr/portage/media-gfx/inkscape/
* run the command 'emerge inkscape' in root
* Drink a coffee or two
* Enjoy !
 
You can improve it and send me back the modifications and I'll update the file.
 
I need feedback !

-- Annotation: You need an installed gtkmm-2.2 (2.4 does not work currently), Dominic
 
Note that the Gentoo packagename for the Boehm garbage collector Inkscape requires is boehm-gc.
Unfortunately, this was set up without --enable-cplusplus.  You can manually get it to work, though:
See http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/faq.xml#configure and follow the steps. After installing it this
way, I also had to do `chmod a+rx /usr/include/gc` so Inkscape's ./configure will find the headers
 
Also, gentoo includes libsigc++ 2.0.1, but Inkscape requires 2.0.3, so that has to be manually
installed.

Inkscape CVS on Gentoo Linux

The CVS ebuild of Inkscape makes getting the latest copy as easy as "emerge inkscape-cvs" : )

How to do it

  • If you have not already done so, <a href="http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=5#doc_chap2">set up a portage overlay</a>.
  • <a href="http://inkscape.org/doc/inkscape-cvs-0.42.ebuild">Download</a> and save the ebuild to media-gfx/inkscape-cvs/inkscape-cvs-0.42.ebuild inside your portage overlay (you will need to create those directories if you haven't already done so).
  • Open a console and as root run 'ebuild <portage overlay>/media-gfx/inkscape-cvs/inkscape-cvs-0.42.ebuild digest' (substitute <portage overlay> with your portage overlay directory
  • Now run 'echo "media-gfx/inkscape-cvs ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords' (change "~x86" for whatever architecture you're on).
  • Now you can simply run 'emerge inkscape-cvs' to get the latest CVS version of Inkscape!
