Yes, kind of the same change I did on Icecat for the WebGL support.
This is going to create a shell script that sets the environment
variables and then call the actual binary, right?

It does but it doesn't.

Why isn't inkscape detecting python-lxml if I can load it from the python
shell?
Does this mean the package's environment is being cleaned by someone else?
Why does Thorsten's (in the thread) inkscape detect lxml and
mine doesn't?
Isn't this supposed to be reproducible?

Sorry but I'm a little bit confused.
