Comment 11 for bug 168440

Originator: NO

So I tested your solution for Python 2.4, and it seemed to work.

Here's what I did:

-- Removed the pyxml and numpy libs from my OS default (2.3.5) install --
so there would be no fallbacks. I verified that Inkscape failed to export
.DXF under these conditions (same error message as the original posting).

-- I modified the inkscape script in the app package just as you outlined
(changed the path export), and re-launched inkscape. I then verified that
the .DXF could be exported.

Seems to do the trick! Thanks a bunch. Let me know if you need anything
else.
