Hi Aaron,

That change to EAN13.py fixes this bug for me, I can now make a barcode
with all 13 digits - thanks! Now all I have to do is get out a
magnifying glass and see if I can decode it :-)

This might seem like an edge case, but this EAN-13 support really is a
killer feature for designing book jackets and other kinds of product
packaging. Otherwise you have to leave a white rectangle and hope the
guy at the printers gets it right. You have to pay extra for them to
make you a barcode too.

Great, I have marked this in Launchpad as 'in progress' rather than 'fix
commited' because I can't see the patch in the Ubuntu changelog:
 
http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/i/inkscape/inkscape_0.46-9ubuntu1/changelog

I guess they'll get the change when they package 0.47 though.

Cheers!

Daniel
