Hi Pierre,

I had a quick look at this backport a few days ago, but have not had
time to go further due to time constraints. Initially changing the build
dep of 'debhelper-compat' from '=13' to '=12' allows inkscape 1.0-1 to
build, but there is an issue post build with 'dh_dwz' failing with:

Couldn't find DIE referenced by DW_OP_GNU_parameter_ref

You or others may get a chance to look at this before I, just thought I
would give you the info I have.

Note: I did build newer 'dwz' and built the backport of inkscape with
that and all was fine and the build completed with success. It looks
like 'dwz' would need patching or updating for this backport to be
successful.

Regards

Phil
