Yes, Inkscape opens them just fine, it's only when invoked
through MediaWiki that the dreaded "Error creating thumbnail:" shows
up with no further explanation. The debug log gives me the command
that MW is trying to run but that works fine when I run it through
a shell. So, I'm kind declaring myself defeated on SVGs for the
moment... =(
Does the account under which Apache runs have proper permissions to read
the svg / write the thumbnail?
If the same command works in a shell, the account under which it's run
could be the difference.
