SVG embedding not working after Libreoffice upgrade from 3.6 to 4

[DanielRuf]

I used Libreoffice 3.6 to create some documents with some SVG images (insert → image). When I open now these documents in Libreoffice 4, the SVG images are not shown. Is there some bug in Libreoffice 4? Can you reproduce it?

I also tried to create a new empty document and insert the SVG image but the image still isnt visible after inserting.

I tried to deinstall and reinstall Libreoffice 4, but the images are still not shown and embedded SVG images are just white square / not shown at all …

This is really annoying, thought 4.0 is final and SVG images dont work anymore? Really embarassing => https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60471

Please fix this as soon as possible =(
