Re: trouble installing Inkscape 0.92.2 via Homebrew

I have a (very) little help to offer:  The problem has nothing to do
with homebrew.  It is a mismatch between the main file (source?) and
its supposed hash.  The hash is supposed to verify that the file you're
reading has not been tampered with, so there some chance of a malicious
action from somebody, but more often, it's just that you haven't got
the right hash . . . from the wrong version of your file.

If it were my problem, I'd try to discover the exact version of each,
or look around for another source for either the main file or the hash,
keeping an eye out for anything looking suspicious.

hth,
