librsvg depends on glib
glib depends on gettext
gettext is GPLed
(this is only the first I've found, but I'm sure there are others)

So the assertion that is in the homepage "It is lightweight and
portable, requiring only libxml and libart at a minimum" is not
true. Maybe someone will correct it with the real dependencies?
(This can avoid other people ask the same question)
