Inkscape is not rendering fonts

Hello,

Whether fonts are installed from pacman or manually, Inkscape is refusing to show them. I tried refreshing the caché and nothing.
Is this a general bug, just Arch or  just me?

Re: Inkscape is not rendering fonts

Fonts display for me.  There are some text tool problems however. It sometimes takes several clicks into the drawing and reselecting the font tool for text entry to become enabled.  Font faces change back to a default face upon changing focus.

Quite a few bugs with fonts have surfaced with this release: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape.

Thanks for answering. I hope they fix this real soon because it's needed a lot.
