** Attachment added: "apt log for packages last updated"
   
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/librsvg/+bug/1299267/+attachment/4049790/+files/history.log

** Description changed:

  Ubuntu Quantal
  
  I recently did a package update and found that it broke the utility
  'rsvg-convert' in package librsvg2-bin. It is now no longer able to
  render an SVG file containing an embedded png in the xlink tag. An
  application I am developing depends on the librsvg2 library, so I
  noticed this immediately. It's a major problem for me not being able to
  do this.
  
  Specifically the problem is with the security upgrade from version
  2.36.3-0ubuntu1 to version 2.36.3-0ubuntu1.1 of librsvg2 and associated
  packages.
  
  Extract from /var/log/apt/history.log:
  
  librsvg2-bin:amd64 (2.36.3-0ubuntu1, 2.36.3-0ubuntu1.1)
  librsvg2-common:amd64 (2.36.3-0ubuntu1, 2.36.3-0ubuntu1.1)
  librsvg2-common:i386 (2.36.3-0ubuntu1, 2.36.3-0ubuntu1.1)
  librsvg2-dev:amd64 (2.36.3-0ubuntu1, 2.36.3-0ubuntu1.1)
  librsvg2-doc:amd64 (2.36.3-0ubuntu1, 2.36.3-0ubuntu1.1)
  
  TO REPRODUCE:
  
  Example of command that fails to render png image:
     rsvg-convert -f png --background-color cyan banner.svg > cyan-banner.png
  
  Download this to test:
     http://www.eiffel-loop.com/download/bug-example.tar.gz
  
  I expect to see this transparent png rendered with a cyan background,
  instead what I see is just a cyan background with no image.
  
- Although I strongly suspect that this recent update was the cause of the
- problem I cannot be absolutely sure as reverting to prior version using
- dpkg did not fix it. I also tried reverting libcairo2 to an earlier
- version incase the problem was there but that hasn't fixed it either. On
- the other hand, I can't be sure I did the reversion correctly.
- 
- Anyway it seems too much of a concidence that the problem appeared after
- doing the upgrade.
+ The problem went away as soon as I downgraded to the prior version of
+ librsvg using dpkg
  
  OTHER  AFFECTED APPLICATIONS:
  the eog image-viewer (Eye of Gnome)
