Hello,

I downloaded inkscape-0.48.4.tar.gz as well as the build package from slackbuilds.org (all required packages (numpy, gsl, gtkmm, lxml) installed as well. But compilation of inkscape fails with this:

CXXLD inkscape

It tells about libfftw3.so.3, but i haven´t found any package that contains libfftw3.so.3. There is a package called fftw-3.3.3-i486-1.txz
but this one has no libfftw3.so.3 nor libfftw3.so

Since i haven´t much programming experience i would appreciate and help on this.

libfftw3.so.3 is indeed part of the fftw package:

libfftw3.so.3 is a symlink to libfftw3.so.3.3.2 (libfftw3.so is too) that is created when the package is installed which is why you did not see that file in the file list of the package. You could try creating the symlink or reinstall the package (perhaps something else went wrong, too).

Thanks for the help/hint on that. I reinstalled the fftw-3.3.3-i486-1 package, but there was no symlink. But after creating it manually compilation of inkscape went fine.

Thx,

Do you install the package in the normal way with upgradepkg or slackpkg?

I installed the package with upgradepkg. Well, first i followed the Slackware 14.0 to 14.1 Upgrade HOWTO.

If you mean how to install the resulting package after building from a slackbuild script?

It is strange that the symlink wasn't created, then.
