Bug Description
Having a problem getting Inkscape to start up. X11
loads without fail whether opening Inkscape or the X11
app itself. Upon initial installation, Inkscape
requests that it run fc-cache. I allow the process to
complete, at which time I am asked to restart Inkscape.
I go to restart the program, and it loads, but sits
there for a few seconds then quits.
I've had problems getting previous versions of inkscape
to start up in the past. I don't recall how I overcame
the issue, but for a while it ran fine, then later
broke on me for reasons I cannot determine. No luck at
all with this latest release.
See attached log for details...

I have a similar problem. I downloaded the latest Mac OS X build, unpacked
it, started it up. It too asked me to run the fc-cache, which I okay, then
it just crashes. It remains running as an application but appears as "not
responding" when I look into my running process in the Activity Monitor
application. So, I have to force quit Inkscape, but X11 gives me no
problems.
I'm running a 1.5 GHz PowerPC G4 with Mac OS 10.4.8. Thanx
