Bug Description
I have a fresh install of OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) with a fresh install of Inkscape 0.91 r13725 (Jan 28 2015) and it's essentially unusable from the cmdline because it looks for all relative paths starting from the 'bin' (almost always /Applications/
I did not have this problem under OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) and the previous version of Inkscape I was running
For example, running:
>pwd
/Users/Me/Documents
>/Applications/
looks for:
Applications/
instead of:
/Users/
and tries to save the PNG to:
/Applications/
instead of:
/Users/
