Neither (cairo) libsvg or libsvg-cairo are stable and supported.  Only
packages under http://cairographics.org/releases/ are supported.

Both are snapshots http://cairographics.org/snapshots/
and I've packaged them under debian for some time:
http://cairographics.org/packages/debian/unstable/

If they get put into debian then the maintainer becomes responsible for
all their support, and will get no upstream support.  I wouldn't make
pycairo (stable, supported) depend on an unsupported library.
