Installing Inkscape/inkstitch on Manjaro

bring up a terminal (or konsole in kde) and run the following commands one at a time:

pamac install inkscape

That will install inkscape

inkscape

That will start an inkscape session. Run through all the “next, next” bits until you get to start a new document. Then close inkscape and run the following commands:

wget https://github.com/inkstitch/inkstitch/releases/latest/download/inkstitch-2.2.0-linux.sh

That will download the most recent version of the inkstitch install script

sh ./inkstitch-2.2.0-linux.sh

That will install the inkstitch install script that we just downloaded.

You are now finished. Start an inkscape session and confirm that inkstitch is in the extensions menu.

I was introduced to Linux in 1998 with a SUSE disc that came in the back of a computer magazine. I didn't want to Bork my system so I took my windows HD out, put a spare in and installed from that SUSE disc. It didn't work.... but it worked just enough to give me the Linux bug. I tried several more times and finally got pclinuxos to work, but the NVIDIA driver would not install. Then came mandrake and that time the nvidia driver worked, but I had a win-modem. Ugh, the damned win-modem just wouldn't work. So I got a hardware dial up card and game on. I loved mandrake, then came kubuntu, which I used for 14 years or so. Jumped to Manjaro-kde, then went with the unstable repos which makes it pretty much Arch. Then went Arch. Back to Manjaro-kde, broke my system and now I'm on OpenSuse Tumbleweed. How ironic that the distro that introduced me to Linux, is what I've currently settled on.
