Hi Paul,
I expected the crashing bug in Fedora's distro Inkscape would be
resolved by the time of Fedora 39 release.
I tested Fedora 39 beta and was disappointed to see more or less the
same crashes of command-line runs of Inkscape as those under Fedora 38.
As a matter of fact, even when Inkscape crashes, the export of PDF
is complete most of the time. So the crashing bug can be worked
around by ignoring the error code from Inkscape and continue building.
This patch set implements the ad-hoc workaround in build scripts.
As you can see in Patch 1/3, the workaround is enabled by default.
This is because enabling it won't do any harm on systems with
stable Inkscape.
I might be able to add some heuristics not to enable the workaround
for stable Inkscape installs, but that can wait.
Ubuntu releases 22.04LTS, 23.04, and 23.10 are free of this issue.
Thanks, Akira
