Subject: committed patch 1629798

committed patch 1629798
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1629798&group_id=93438&atid=604308
this patch suppresses the requirement on skconvert for ps and eps input and
only uses pstoedit with the plot-svg back-end (which is free).
It introduces some warning messages and can cause some scale problems depending on the origin of the ps or eps but it probably better than relying on sketch and can probably be enhanced.
Apparently this patch is used in Fedora's Inkscape already and it seems to do well there.
