ImageMagick also does SVGs, but it's crap at them.
librsvg is the only
sane way IMO. This too has a ridiculously long string of dependencies
(probably all the way down to the original .au of the Free Software
Song) so you really don't even want to attempt it unless it's in the
repository system of whatever you're installing it on. (again, fine on
CentOS 4.5.)
By the way, I just updated the SVG section in the manual:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Image_Administration#SVG
Is anyone here actually using Inkscape or Sodipodi for SVG rendering
in MediaWiki? What's the performance like? Has anyone tested this?
(I was also surprised to discover Safari on MacOS X does SVGs
natively. I haven't tested with my personal favourite bastard SVG from
Hell ...)
