Comment 12 for bug 386069

[Translated in google]

The error persists on Vista, but he withdrew the "file :///". I see that the problem was not exactly this, it is the following>> to embed an image he should use only the address of the image, but he tries to incorporate the image using two addresses (working path + path of the image), resulting in failure. By embedding, I think you should only use the path of the image.

example: I dragged an image from the directory "C:\Users\Frank\Desktop\pictures\corrinha.jpg" and released within Inkscape. Soon after import the same image through the menu "import", both have the same failure when trying to embed >>

"In the xlink: href or sodipodi: absref attributes found, or they do not point to an existing file! Unable to embed image.

Sorry we could not locate C:\C:\Users\Frank\Desktop\photos\corrinha.jpg "
