SVG file representing Einstein most famous result.

I'm using Libreoffice Version: 4.2.6.3 Build ID: 420m0(Build:3) on Ubuntu 14.04.

When I try to open or insert (via paste) SVG files made with dvisvgm in a draw/impress document, it fails to display the image properly (or doesn't display them at all, or simply start working really slow).

I've verified that the SVG is valid using the validator found here: "http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/". The same files work in GNOME Image Viewer, InkScape, Chrome, Comix, ... Anything I can find that supports SVG except LibreOffice.

This used to work in previous versions of LibreOffice, although I can't say which version introduced the problem.

I've attached an example file.

Thank you.

Jos

I think this is a duplicate of fdo#78554 and will be fixed in 4.2.7 - at least it works in 4.3.1 and master.
