FreeBSD port: graphics/inkscape

[Sergey Zaharchenko]

Hello GNOME team,

I've decided to try out inkscape. It installs and works OK, but the
effects are not usable unless one installs the textproc/py-xml port.
Inkscape says:

  The inkex.py module requires PyXML. Please download the latest version
  from <http://pyxml.sourceforge.net/>.

May I suggest you depend on py-xml in the inkscape port, or at least
include an advice in inkscape's pkg-message?

Further: after I've installed py-xml, inkscape hangs when I try to apply
any effect (just sits and eats CPU). The relevant backtrace from gdb is:

#1  0x0827a492 in Inkscape::DocumentSubset::Relations::clear () <-- this function never ends
#2  0x0823eb06 in Inkscape::LayerManager::_rebuild ()

Thanks,
