Bug Description

Please add autogen.sh to the list of distributable files for release 0.91 and later.

Due to no fault with Inkscape at all, MacPorts' support for multiple perl
versions requires that ports that depend on intltool be reconfigured
with a custom version of intltool.m4.

Normally, just using autoreconf is sufficient to handle the issue but
there is enough special handling going on in Inkscape's autogen.sh that it really
needs to be used instead.

We can download it separately if necessary but having it as part of
the distribution would remove the requirement to be on the lookout
for changes.

Perhaps there are other packagers that would find it useful as well.

Fixed in lp:inkscape r13906. Is there any reason not to backport to 0.91.1?
