> Running inkscape-trunk in Kubuntu 12.10

Not reproduced with inkscape-trunk on
- Ubuntu 12.04 (inkscape-trunk r12064, r12072, Unity, Gnome)
- Ubuntu 12.10 (local trunk build r12063, r12072, Unity (Radiance), Gnome 3.6 (Adwaita GTK2)
- OS X 10.7.4 (r12069, r12072, GTK+/X11 2.24.13, GTK+/Quartz 2.24.14,
  with various GTK+ theme engines: Clearlooks, Murrine, Adwaita GTK2 from Gnome 3.6, Aurora, Equinox, Nodoka)

Which GTK+ theme (engine) do you use under KDE? Have you tested other gtk theme engines, including stock 'Raleigh?

The usual ways to delete guides (not involving the rulers) don't work either?
a) Hover a guide until it gets highlighted and press 'Del' (or 'Backspace')
   (Note: be careful not to delete a current selection instead ;-) )
b) Double-click a guide to open the Guides dialog, and press 'Delete'
c) Use the new menu item in current trunk 'Edit > Delete All Guides' to delete all existing guides

Another new feature in current trunk (not present in the stable version 0.48): a single click on the rulers hides/shows existing guides.
