Probably, we could already do that (though not these few days as I need
0.92.5 to stay there).
Upstream told me that they plan on doing the final release in May and
they released an RC yesterday.

Please just go ahead and feel free to break inkscape's Recommends. They
are only for the extensions, and don't really impact the core

broken for a little while anyway.
