Hi,
The last release candidat of Inkscape (1.0~rc1-4 on my Debian sid)
doesn't provide the `--export-pdf=` option anymore. So context can not
convert svg files into the corresponding `m_k_i_v_*` pdf.
It seems that the `--export-filename=` option does the job.
Thank in advance.
The command line syntax has changed in version 1. See this:
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Release_notes/1.0#Command_Line
So it's --export-filename in Inkscape 1.00, and --export-pdf in
previous versions.
I tried to specify both options with Inkscape 0.92 hoping the wrong
one would be ignored, without success; you get only a warning, not an
error, but the conversion fails anyway.
To make ConTeXt work with both versions, it should run "inkscape
--version" before doing the actual conversion, to decide the right
option.
If the conversion you need is done by
tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/ruby/graphics/inkscape.rb
you should edit that file and replace "--export-pdf" with
"--export-filename".
There are two other files where that option is used:
tex/texmf-context/tex/generic/context/luatex/luatex-fonts-merged.lua
tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-ocl.lua
it's font-related code; if you need it, do the same replacement of
"--export-pdf" in those two files and then remake the format with
context --make
and the export to pdf will work with Inkscape 1.00.
But it won't work with Inkscape 0.92.
As I don't wan to waste code for testing the version, when do we
change this? Now? I downloaded version 1 so it is available for all
platforms.
1.0 is a release candidate. Romain is using the unstable version of
Debian (sid), so he's using Inkscape 1.00rc.
Anyway Inkscape 0.92 will be around for some time, so a better solution
would be defaulting to the export option of the current version of
Inkscape unless the user sets an environment variable (INKSCAPE_VERSION?).
So a test of an environment variable instead of spawning a process to
run "inkscape --version".
hm, we can have for a while
\enabledirectives[graphics.inkscape.oldversion]
and use new as default (and of course you will wikify that, okay?)
