Version 0.44 of inkscape has lots of interesting new features. See here:

The site is slashdotted at present so I compiled a Dapper deb using their Debian infrastructure (i.e. it is a higher quality deb than that produced by checkinstall). Looks nice! Grab it here:

Install using
sudo dpkg -i inkscape_0.44-1_i386.deb
