Description Waldo Bastian 2006-08-10 13:42:29 UTC
needs investingation, needs test coverage
Comment 1 Tom Whipple 2006-08-10 15:44:21 UTC
In SUSE 10.0/Gnome 2.12.0, SVG files themselves are not previewed properly. For
example, when we look at the tests/icons directory, the red-SVG.svg file shows
up in the file browser as a big black box, rather than the text "SVG" that is
seen when the document is opened in Inkscape.

xdg-utils-usecases/t.12-svg_icon_render is (about to be) checked in to address
this case.

I have updated the SVG file to be less inkscape specific and now it shows up 
more often but many older versions of both gnome and kde still lack proper SVG 
support.
