[Slackbuilds-users] Inkscape 0.92.3 error

[Ekin Akoglu]

Hi,

Thank you, Rob, for your helpful advice. I could manage to compile 
inkscape with "CXXFLAGS=-liconv" successfully. On my system I need this 
library and somehow I must have changed something in the default install 
of Slackware64 when installing it and that's why inkscape produced this 
error.

By the way, after building and installing, "inkscape -V" still shows the 
version as "0.92.2". I suspect that there must be something wrong with 
the source archive downloaded from Inkscape's web site.

Best,

Ekin
