* Bug fixes

* Flowed text: text objects that automatically reflow in any shape (not
only rectangle).
* Text selection: finally you can shift+arrow or drag over part of a
text and apply any style to the selected span.
* Gradient tool: a completely redesigned and much easier to use gradient
interface, with gradient handles displayed right on canvas.
* Effects are now usable from within Inkscape on all platforms; this
version ships with a collection of effects including path
interpolation, randomization, and various fractal algorithms.
* Color swatches: a standard facility in most graphic software, now in
Inkscape too.
* Colored clones: clones can now be painted differently from their
original.
* Tile tracing: the Tile Clones dialog can trace the existing image with
the tiling, producing a multitude of exciting effects.
* Grid arrange, baseline align, unclumping: new powerful ways to arrange
objects.
* Better PS/EPS export: gradient support, better text handling, a
command line option for batch export.
* Command line SVG analysis: use Inkscape from the command line to query
coordinates and dimensions of objects in an SVG file.
* Better SVG/CSS compliance: notably, internal CSS stylesheets are now
supported (read-only).
* OS X support: In addition to Linux and Windows, Inkscape 0.42 is
available as a fully self-contained dmg package for Mac OS X.

version which was broken die to a GNU'ism

from the announcement:
The primary focus of 0.41 has been bug fixing.
[...]
A couple new features also found their way in. First, the black and
white tracing functionality introduced in 0.40 has been improved to also
allow conversion of color and grayscale images. Second, is the addition
of a new clone tiler facility which creates patterns, tesselations, and
other sorts of geometric tiling arrangements.
User requests and comments also stimulated a number of improvements to
units handling, extensions, the Invert Selection command, layers
selector, icon theming, and several new translations.

This is for PR #29012 from Douglas Brebner.
I reported this to the inkscape developers and this is being fixed.

has:
This release has been slow in coming, but it was worth the wait: Inkscape
0.40 brings a huge amount of new features, usability enhancements,
documentation, and bugfixes. The three most important new features are:
* Layers are almost complete in this version; this fills a major gap in
functionality, making Inkscape usable for complex artwork.
* The Potrace bitmap tracer is incorporated into Inkscape - now
vectorizing bitmaps is easy and interactive. A matching command,
"Create bitmap copy", converts from any object to bitmap.
* The text-on-path implementation is complete and very flexible. Both
the text and the path remain fully editable and transformable.
...
* Bugfixes: too many to mention (in total, 228 bugs closed in the
tracker since 0.39), including several important SVG compatibility
fixes.

This package now depends on boehm-gc. And it uses libsigc++2
and gtkmm24 instead of libsigc++ and gtkmm.
Many new templates added. And a new library added: libgimpgrad.
Patches removed. (The landscape printing support was added to 0.40.)
