inkscape

InkScape 0.48.2 refuses to show my newly added Ubuntu color palettes in the color palettes selection menu.

I have downloaded the Ubuntu color palettes for GIMP/InkScape from design.canonical.com, extracted the files and copied them to /usr/share/inkscape/palettes/ where all the other color palettes are.

I've even made sure that all the files have the same rights, just in case.

What am I missing?
