Purging chroot-autobuild/build/buildd/inkscape-0.48.1

[Alex Valavanis (valavanisalex)]

Looks like this is a duplicate of bug #707205 caused by missing inclusions of <cstddef>. I guess that this will be fixed by the same patch as the one committed upstream.

We should look into backporting the patch to the Ubuntu package.

[Alex Valavanis (valavanisalex)]

Targetting fix to Oneiric. This doesn't affect natty (gcc-4.5)

[Alex Valavanis (valavanisalex)]

Attaching upstream patch from lp:inkscape that fixes bug #707205. Needs testing in Ubuntu Oneiric.

[Alex Valavanis (valavanisalex)]

Debdiff incorporating the upstream patch attached. Needs build testing in Oneiric chroot.
