After the presentation of Igor Novikov about the new version of sk1, the OSP team can’t wait. It is promised to be published for June, in the meantime we installed the current version and are testing our svgs with it.

To install the current version on ubuntu:

grab the three .deb files from the products page, then in a terminal, run:
sudo dpkg -i tcl8.5_8.5.0-2ubuntu10_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i tk8.5_8.5.0-3ubuntu10_i386.deb
via synaptic, add the packages:
python-imaging
python-imaging-tk
python-liblcms

and then,

sudo dpkg -i sk1_0.9.0-rev335-1ubuntu10_i386.deb
Complementary instructions for other platforms are available on the project’s website.
