Created attachment 130460 [details] Modified ebuild file. This ebuild file fixes the dependency issue. It just adds ">=dev-libs/libxslt-1.0.15" to the COMMON_DEPEND variable. The version dependency for libxslt was pulled from the ebuild file for inkscape-0.45. I did not test if libxslt-1.0.15 works with inkscape-0.45.1, so I am not certain its value is correct. I have libxslt-1.1.20.
On my system Inkscape also fails to build with the same error-message as reported here one month after the original report. Please fix this dependency issue as this involves a package that is within the stable branch.
added libxslt to 0.45.1
