Inkscape F14 problem

Since I upgraded to F14 I have been having this problem in inkscape. The triangles which indicate position do not refresh correctly and form a black border.

If I remember correctly, this is a bug in inkscape and has been fixed. But the fix hasn't made it into Fedora yet.

To get the fixed version, you would need to compile inkscape from source (you would need the 0.48.1 version)

Who can we make the request to push the updated/fixed version out?

I am having the same issue but I am also getting a terrible crash when dealing with fonts. I have reported the problem for what good it does. (In all of the bugs I have reported over the years, NONE have ever been fixed. Acknowledged, yes, verified, yes, fixed, no.)

But just so that anyone else can test this, I select the T tool and then go to the font selection drop down on the tool bar. That's it... it crashes hard.

I would like to refer people who want a newer Inkscape here:

With the src RPM, I was able to build a binary that works.
