I had to add quite a lot of extra dependencies to satisfy the pkg-config. (These are marked explicitly via the comment). Not sure what is happening here. I thought this was because strictDeps = true, but removing this line did not help.

Maybe someone from the GTK team has an idea what's going on? @raskin @vcunat @lethalman @worldofpeace

Here's the list of the extra dependencies I had to add:

    pcre             # libpcre required by glib-2.0
    libpthreadstubs  # pthread-stubs required by xcb
    libXdmcp         # xdmcp required by xcb
    utillinuxMinimal # mount required by gio-2.0
    libselinux       # libselinux required by gio-2.0
    libsepol         # libsepol required by libselinx
    sqlite           # sqlite3 required by libsoup-2.4
    libpsl           # libpsl required by libsoup-2.4
    brotli           # libbrotlidec required by libsoup-2.4
    icu              # icu-i18n required by libvisio-0.1, libcdr-0.1
    libwpd           # libwpd-0.10 required by libwpg-0.3
    libxkbcommon     # xkbcommon required by gdk-3.0
    epoxy            # epoxy required by gdk-3.0
    dbus             # dbus-1 required by atk-bridge-2.0
    at-spi2-core     # atspi-2 required by atk-bridge-2.0
    at-spi2-atk      # atspi-2 required by atk-bridge-2.0
    libXtst          # xtst required by atspi-2

Hm, I just checked the inkscape in master (0.92.4) and I see the same pkg-config failures, so maybe these are expected and everything is OK?

For now, we should also bump to 0.92.5: #85184

I rebased the PR on top of the current master (which now has inkscape 0.92.5 with some cleanup merged in - thx @jtojnar).

I also removed the extra dependencies mentioned in the discussion above from the PR. I have them in a separate local commit in case these are still needed.

I addressed the comments from @jtojnar in 863becbf103

Darwin build timeouts after 1800 seconds in the CI

Looks good, thanks.

So I wanted to test out Inkscape 1.0 and mechanically did a nix-review on this PR ^^

Result of nix-review pr 85169 1

From a quick glance it seems due to the removal of the --without-gui / -z CLI option.

Here are the logs of failed derivations, I hope it is useful:

ripcord's log is empty for some reason.

Otherwise, Inkscape seems to work great!

I just ran inkscape from this PR and noticed a crash when trying to open the file-picker window (to open a file):

(org.inkscape.Inkscape:7308): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 01:49:57.209: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system

This seems similar to #87457 - @jtojnar can you please confirm that moving glib to nativeBuildInputs is the correct way of fixing the issue?

Maybe try adding it there, it should still remain in buildInputs

@spacekookie can you try adding glib to nativeBuildInputs to see whether this helps?

Guix actually managed to unbundle the dependencies: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-patches/2020-05/msg00365.html

I imported this package from @prusnak fork tarball and it works perfect on NixOS 20.03.

Rebased (fixing the conflicts) and added glib to nativeBuildInputs. It looks like it adds $GSETTINGS_SCHEMAS_PATH to the build environment at least.

Edit: also added gdk-pixbuf for setting GDK_PIXBUF_MODULE_FILE.

This pull request has been mentioned on NixOS Discourse. There might be relevant details there:

https://discourse.nixos.org/t/what-are-your-goals-for-20-09/8035/7

Rebased on top of the current master + changed the description of inkscape_0 package to "Legacy version of vector graphics editor".

I'm also fine with keeping around the old version of the package because of the cli changes.

Ty all! I'm super excited to use this!
