Description (last modified by dbevans (David B. Evans))
This may be related to changeset r36089
inkex.py, one of the core effects extensions for inkscape, requires python's lxml. Inkscape, whether fetched from SourceForge as a binary, or built through MacPorts, can't find the MacPorts version of lxml (port py25-lxml). I built lxml from the project's svn, pointed the setup.py file to MacPorts xml2 ans xslt (/opt/local/bin ...) and everything works.
Apparently this is something of a known issue within the Inkscape community
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/GettingEffectsWorking
however, they seem to think it's been fixed.

As you say inkscape uses python-26 now and the necessary modifications to correctly configure paths etc for that were done in r70590. Python extensions work for me in the current version.
Will close on that basis. If the problem continues for you please specify the scenario in which Inkscape fails (commands to use, etc).
Thanks.
Is this still a problem with inkscape 0.48.0 which uses py26-lxml?
