inkscape has 'POPPLER "Enable libpoppler-cairo for rendering PDF preview" off' by default. Until 0.46, a default package of inkscape was able to import eps (with pstoedit present at least). Since 0.47 eps import uses ps2pdf from ghostscript (see release notes) and then poppler. Even with ghostscript installed, the default package of inkscape cannot import eps anymore. At least, the description of the option needs to be changed. Moreover, the default could be reconsidered, since I guess that most would expect the default package of inkscape to have eps/pdf import capabilities. An optional run time dependency on ghostscript might be appropriate, too. Cheers, Jan Henrik
