Beyond the Basics jessyink in inkscape 1.0 (1.0+r73+1) in Linux Mint 19 - can't add effects

    Hi,

    I definitely had this working before, and presentations I'd previously created still work, but since updating to 1.0 I don't seem to be able to add effects to my slides (I want elements to appear on on a mouse click to advance - pretty elementary slideshow behaviour, nothing fancy). I was getting an error about lxml so I installed it via

    sudo apt-get install python3-lxml
    

    but now I am getting a different error when I do:

    select object> jessyink > effects>add

    /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/report.py:13: DeprecationWarning: the imp module is deprecated in favour of importlib; see the module's documentation for alternative uses
      import fnmatch, glob, traceback, errno, sys, atexit, locale, imp

    TypeError: must be str, not int
    

    can anyone help?

    Looks like the jessyInk extension needs fixing, can you report this to the extensions issues tracker?

    ok will do thank you!

    in the meantime I found a workaround - i was trying to figure out what I would have to do to go back to my previous version (uninstall the ppa??) when I realized I could just switch to my other laptop (that is still running 0.92) - phew!

    I fixed the issue this morning in master. Although it may take a while to make it into the next Inkscape version.

    wow thank you for your hard work!  I'm fine in 0.92 for working with the effects for now, but I'll keep an eye on the updates!
