Please paste the output of `emerge --info media-gfx/inkscape' in a comment. Looks suspiciously like a fontconfig issue, so maybe you should put your `eselect fontconfig list' in a comment too.

Comment 3 Michael Orlitzky gentoo-dev 2011-10-15 12:16:04 UTC
I think this is upstream already; I have the same problem. My workaround at the moment is simply to move my ~/.fonts somewhere else when I'm using Inkscape.

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/488247

It's two years old and has six dupes, but is at least confirmed.
Comment 4 Nuno Silva 2015-04-03 12:40:36 UTC
At least here the slow startup was fixed by upgrading inkscape to 0.91. But the bug is still present with amd64 inkscape.
