Hello Platonides! Thank you for being do kind to make the list. Originally I wanted to download the svg-files whenever my program is using the file, one after another. Turned out, that's just not feasible.
Could I get a dump of all svg files, please? Not just the list of the files with their paths, but the svg-files themselves? Then I just have them locally, and I don't have to handle all the network exceptions that occur on my side too often.
That would be of a great help for me.

Hello Dieter
That would be similarly hard for me than for you.
I have run the equivalent of:
mkdir dieter-svgs cd dieter-svgs wget http://tools.wmflabs.org/heritage/commonswiki_svg_list-2016-03-02.txt.xzplat... time wget http://tools.wmflabs.org/heritage/commonswiki_svg_list-2016-03-02.txt.xz xz -d commonswiki_svg_list-2016-03-02.txt.xz time wget --force-directories -i commonswiki_svg_list-2016-03-02.txt cd .. tar -cjf dieter-svgs-2016-03-02.tar.bz2 dieter-svgs/
I have kept the directory structure in place (by using the --force-directories parameter) so that it isn't too stressful for the filesystem. Still, a GUI app will probably choke on it.
And after a quite long wait, here is the result: https://archivos.wikimedia.es/dieter-svgs-2016-03-02.tar.bz2 (99GB)
SHA256 checksum: 48966777cc5f5d733b2a1eaf4d11f86853e9545a56da329929c996e330b38e28 dieter-svgs-2016-03-02.tar.bz2
Best regards
