Install librsvg by running the following commands:

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
    --disable-gtk-doc &&
make &&
make install

--disable-gtk-doc: This option prevents the rebuilding of documentation during the make command.

rsvg is used to covert SVG images into PNG, JPEG and ICO raster images.

rsvg-view is used to view an SVG file in an X window.

librsvg libraries provide the functions to render Scalable Vector Graphics.
