Package: inkscape
Version: 0.46-1
Severity: important

It looks like 0.46's new printing dialog is broken in that it now
completely ignores the DPI setting and so always prints at 72dpi. Thus many
documents (eg. those containing features that don't render correctly using
the vector backend (such as clipped objects; see #329075)) aren't able to
be usefully printed at all.

(Of course, it wouldn't be such a problem if it were possible to influence
the DPI of images in exported PDF/XCF documents...)

Example SVG attached (the linked image file isn't included, but any
1280x960 image should do). Desired result: printing results in a page
showing only the 'Hello, world' text and 'i' in the Debian logo, at better
than 72dpi. At the very least, printing to PDF with different DPI settings
should result in files of different sizes...
