Description:
Inkscape features an extension manager, available in the program under the menu bar > "Extensions" > "Manage extensions". This extension manager is implemented as a Python script which depends some python modules, including the "appdirs" module (https://pypi.org/project/appdirs/ also available on arch under "extra/python-appdirs"). Launching Inkscape without that dependency and opening the extension manager makes Inkscape report an internal error from a Python import. After installing the dependency, the extension manager can now properly be opened. After closing it, another error message appears but this time I think it is an upstream bug, and not for you to figure out :) Additional info: * reported on Inkscape 1.2.2-4 (`pacman` output) installed from the "extra" repo. Steps to reproduce: - Open Inkscape, either through a SVG file, from the command line or your favorite DE/WM. - When a document (empty or not) is open, go to the menu bar > "Extensions" > "Manage extensions". - Notice Inkscape reports an internal error and carries on after closing the dialog. Steps to fix: - Update the dependencies of Inkscape to include the `python-appdirs` package, under the "extra" repo. |
