Don't know from where it comes to lyx, but a short googling reveals
https://opensourcepack.blogspot.com/2012/06/rsvg-convert-svg-image-conversion-tool.html
(rsvg-convert-2.40.20.7z)
Seems pretty old, but OTOH, on my linux it is even older version ...
        $ rsvg-convert --version
==> rsvg-convert version 2.40.13
