Description
I initially assumed this was a development release on the way to 1.0, but it signifies a change in the roadmap and is considered stable.
from https://inkscape.org/en/download/
Stable release 0.91 intended for production use is available.
Release notes at http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Release_notes/0.91 Some selected items from there:
Release highlights Released on 2015-01-28. Cairo rendering for display and PNG export OpenMP multithreading for all filters C++ code conversion Major improvements in the Text tool Measure tool Type design features [1],[2] Symbol library and support for Visio stencils Cross platform WMF and EMF import and export Improved support for Corel DRAW documents, Visio importer Support for real world document and page size units, e.g. millimeters Numerous usability improvements Notable bug fixes Notable bug fixes since last bug fix release (0.48.5): Images are no longer recompressed when embedding or exporting them. [3] Relative image paths are no longer stored as absolute (regression introduced with 0.47). Many rendering glitches were fixed. The rendering of the stroke on transformed objects now matches the SVG specification. Values entered in the numeric input boxes for the selector tool (X, Y, width, height) are much more accurately applied. Inkscape launches faster due to new icon cache (on disk) and improved font loading.
NB for anybody using BLFS from before mid-October, cairo-1.14.0 is needed. But comments in the inkscape archives http://sourceforge.net/p/inkscape/mailman/message/33245744/ suggest cairo needs to be patched (or sedded), see e.g. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85591 pointing to http://cgit.freedesktop.org/cairo/commit/?id=2de69581c28bf115852037ca41eba13cb7335976.

Ken, thanks for doing this.
I think you forgot to close.
I'm doing it, if you don't mind.
Please feel free to reopen, if I'm wrong
Another patch in (at least) fedora - from one of the inkscape people. http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/cairo.git/plain/cairo-fix_crash_in_fill_xrgb32_lerp_opaque_spans.patch but that will not easily convert to a sed - too many '(len--) in the file, only two should be changed and I regard sed commands to act on a specific numbered line as asking for trouble. Will create a combined patch and test with it.
