Artful: Inkscape depending old libgtkmm & libgdkmm

[Frans van Berckel]

Hi Robie,

The good news first ...

$ ldd /usr/bin/inkscape | grep gtkmm

libgtkmm-2.4.so.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtkmm-2.4.so.1
(0x00007f2a46598000)

And firring-up inkscape does what it got to do.

It a simple Gnome Desktop install on indeed RAID. So lets have a extra
pair of eye's on that the coming days ;-)

Doing a lot as root, true. So it isn't root but me. I do not delete any
library, ever. For what i know, not downloaded any third party script.

Thanks for finding out.
