[Solved] Inkscape: undefined symbol after upgrading

After upgrading inkscape from 0.91-9 to 0.91-10 I'm not able to start the application anymore.

$ inkscape
inkscape: symbol lookup error: inkscape: undefined symbol: _ZN4sigc9slot_baseC1EOS0_

The issue persists after re-installing inkscape.

Fundamental Axiom of the Universe (aka Murphy's Law): Whatever can go wrong, will go wrong.
First Digital Deduction: Nothing obeys Murphy's Law so well as computers.
Second Digital Deduction: Everything go wrong at least once.
Third Digital Deduction: Things go wrong even when there's absolutely no possibility of anything go wrong.

Re: [Solved] Inkscape: undefined symbol after upgrading

The inkscape 0.91-11 update should correct this.
