[hugh chao]

[Summary]
Since the package "gir1.2-rsvg-2.0:amd64" been upgraded from 2.46.4-1ubuntu1 to 2.48.0-1 in Focal's daily build, ubiquity will crash as attached crash log.

[Steps to reproduce]
1. Boot with OEM mode,
2. Finish the 1st stage
3. Reboot
4. Boot into OOBE(oem-config)

[Expected result]
Should start oobe without any error.

[Actual result]
The error message 『The installer encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will now be run so that you may investigate the problem or try installing again.』shown on the screen.

[Failure rate]
100%

[Additional information]
No idea why, but some "nm-signal-*-secure" images will fail in Gtk.IconTheme().lookup_icon(n, 22, 0).load_icon(), and below error message will show:

"
Gtk-WARNING **: 18:23:31.380: Could not load a pixbuf from icon theme.
This may indicate that pixbuf loaders or the mime database could not be found.
gi.repository.GLib.GError: rsvg-error-quark: XML parse error: error code=201 (3) in (null):40:466: Namespace prefix sodipodi on namedview is not defined

As suggested by seb128, the ubiquity autopkgtests fail with the same error.

I bet this is caused by this upstream change in librsvg:

- Librsvg's XML parser now supports namespaces (xmlns), and is
  stricter than before about it. Files may fail to parse if there are
  attributes or elements with namespace prefixes (e.g. foo:bar instead
  of plain bar), but without a corresponding namespace declaration
  (e.g. xmlns:foo="http://example.com/foo").

  This may happen especially with incorrectly-written SVGs that use
  xlink:href or xi:include attributes without the corresponding
  namespace declarations. If you run into this, just add the
  following to your toplevel SVG element:

      <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
           xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
    xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude">
           ^^^^^^^^^ these ones

The nm-signal-*.svg icons in /usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-light/status/22 use sodipodi: prefixed attributes (exported by inkscape) without the corresponding namespace declaration (http://sodipodi.sourceforge.net/DTD/sodipodi-0.dtd).

[Olivier Tilloy (osomon)]

The invalid SVGs appear to be generated by the scavenge.py script in ubuntu-themes.

even in building ubiquity it will fail in :

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-themes - 19.04-0ubuntu3

---------------
ubuntu-themes (19.04-0ubuntu3) focal; urgency=medium

  * Preserve namespace declarations in the script that combines multiple
    SVG files into one (LP: #1867766)
