Please don't cross-post. See my detailed reply at:
http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/321837/323

For Hans: There is a bug in graph-inc.lua. You need to remove `-A` from 
programs.inkscape:


programs.inkscape = {
command  = "inkscape",
pdfargument = [[
"%oldname%"
--export-dpi=600
--export-pdf="%newname%"
]],
pngargument = [[
"%oldname%"
--export-dpi=600
--export-png="%newname%"
]],
}

-A and --export-pdf are synonyms. When inkscape -A --export-pdf="..." is 
used, inkscape thinks that `--export-pdf="..."` is the filename (but only 
if "..." is not in the current directory, weird).

$ inkscape -V
Inkscape 0.92pre1 unknown (Jul 30 2016)

https://launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/+archive/ubuntu/trunk

I'm not sure if this version of Inkscape is at fault. It'd be cool if
there was a way to specify the SVG to PDF converter program (e.g., to
use rsvg-converter instead) from the command line.

Work Around

$ cd images
$ inkscape -z drawing.svg
--export-pdf=/home/username/temp/images/m_k_i_v_drawing.svg.pdf
$ cd ..
$ context test.tex

No errors.

Any ideas how to fix, without manually converting each file first?
