No package libwpd-stream (.pc file) since Slackware 14.2 (for Inkscape 1.0.1)
by Moun from LinuxQuestions.org on (#59WA7)
I tried to compile Inkscape 1.0.1 on up-to-date Slackware 14.2, and I ran on some packages resolving issue.
Current Inkscape requires libwpd-0.9 and libwpd-stream-0.9 "pkg" packages (.pc files).
Slackware 14.2 provides currently libwpd-0.10.1-x86_64-1.tgz. Driven by hope, I ran a sed command on CMake files to replace "pkg" libwpd-0.9 dependencies with libwpd-0.10.
However I realized there is no libwpd-stream "pkg" package provided since Slackware 14.2. Slackware 14.1 provides it in libwpd 0.9.6.
An outdated official page stops at 0.9.0, and another Sourceforge page provides 0.10.x versions but is very laconic about the changes.
Why libwpd-stream got dropped in Slackware 14.2?
