No, the patch does no such thing. Please look at what function sp_input_load_from_preferences() really does.
Preferences are loaded the first something needs them, i.e. the first time Inkscape::Preferences::get() is called. So, if something needs them they will be loaded in due time. Beside obtaining the preferences pointer, sp_input_load_from_preferences() does nothing at all in non-GUI mode. -- assertion hit when running inkscape without DISPLAY set https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/167857 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
