Perhaps we should quickly upload a revert, using the last good version of librsvg, before things degrade? Effectively removing librsvg on 11 archs (not counting non-official ones) stops any GUI there. Including proverbial fvwm. A regression of this scale shouldn't be done lightly. So what about reverting it now so things don't degrade, then having a flamewar what to do? Meow! -- A true bird-watcher waves his tail while doing so.
