Anders,

Stephen Witt mentioned that he was using RSVG-convert.  So I installed, using 
macports librsvg.  I did a reconfigure on Lyx, and now the svgz snippets show 
up.

Don’t know why it is required to have this package, as Lyx should supply 
everything it needs to make all these conversions work.
No.
rsvg-convert is independent of lyx, as is also inkscape or any other executable.
While Inkscape is not provided with LyX, rsvg-convert is, at least on
Windows.

Daniel

By lyx? (If yes, then I think that is not OK, since it is not a program we 
created).
I am pretty sure by LyX since it is in the LyX bin directory.

(I guess it is OK as long as no licenses are violates. On Windows, which
has no package dependency system like some Linux distributions, it is
pretty common that applications come with such helper applications,
especially for open source software.)

Daniel

I am surprised. Riki, is that part of our installation script?

OK, found a file with a list of executables
development/Win32/packaging/installer/include/filelist.nsh.
Very strange policy for a unix user.

Yes, there's a bunch of stuff we install with LyX on Windows. My
understanding, as Daniel said, is that this is because configuring this
kind of thing on Windows is very difficult, due to path issues and the
registry, etc, etc.

Riki

Do you happen to know where the rsvg-convert.exe installed with LyX comes from, e.g. where it can be obtained?
