I'm not sure why, but none of the backends were installed when pstoedit was emerged. I reemerged pstoedit and this fixed the problem. I'm not sure if pstoedit was brought in by inkscape, or by something else. I'll be putting together a fresh Gentoo install over the weekend. I'll pay close attention to pstoedit and see if I can reproduce the problem. Created attachment 68789 [details]
Diff between 1st and 2nd pstoedit emerge
I emerged Inkscape on a fresh Gentoo install. pstoedit was brought in by
Inkscape. I encountered the same error, so it is reproduceable. It looks like a
linking error in pstoedit. I've attached a diff between the first emerge output
of pstoedit and the second emerge output of pstoedit.

I had the same problem with inkscape (actually pstoedit) on my x86 laptop. this problem did not seem to appear on my amd64 desktop, but perhaps i had reemerged pstoedit, so i cannot say for sure. Re-emerging pstoedit does appear to cure the problem on the laptop. perhaps the pstoedit ebuild should call itself recursively when it is done ;) --sep I have inkscape 0.43 and pstoedit doesn't import ps files. No matter haow many times I emerged it. I grabbed the source off the official website and compiled it and it's working now. This appears to be a build problem with media-gfx/pstoedit[1], not with inkscape. For now the main problem is that the fix is media-gfx/pstoedit-3.44 which has not been committed to the tree yet (bug #139024). I succesfully imported a postcript file in 0.45.1 so this should be fixed there. It is also going to go stable soon because of a security bug 171799. |
