Installation
From the extra repository
Inkscape can be installed from the extra repository as usually with:
pacman -S inkscape
Without gnome dependencies
Inkscape has quite a few gnome dependencies, that can be annoying to users of other environments. However, if you do not want these, you can compile inkscape-nognome from the AUR.
Troubleshooting
Build error with libpng 1.2.x
If inkscape fails to build with the following error:
In file included from /usr/include/libpng12/png.h:474, from sp-image.cpp:44: /usr/include/libpng12/pngconf.h:328: error: expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before '.' token /usr/include/libpng12/pngconf.h:329: error: '__dont__' does not name a type
You should be able to solve that by simply commenting the two mentioned Lines in /usr/include/libpng12/pngconf.h out:
//__pngconf.h__ already includes setjmp.h; //__dont__ include it again.;
(I've got no idea what else those changes influence, so you might want to undo them after inkscape is built. This could be related to Debian Bug#522477 and might get fixed in libpng 1.4)
