Dotted lines in SVG do not scale correctly
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

rsvg does not seem to scale the dash-pattern of lines, so the gaps become larger
(in relation to the rest of the image) if the image is rendered to a lower
resolution. I have tested Image:Hypercardioidpattern.svg with other renderers
(sodipode, adobe plugin, ImageMagick), which seem all to scale the dash pattern
with the rest of the image (although some screw up other aspects of the rendering).

Resolving as INVALID, upstream issue.

FYI: the bug has been confirmed by the Gnome people and marked as FIXED IN HEAD.
Here's the quote:

Everything works fine with the cairo backend in HEAD. I don't think we will ever
fix this for libart though.

So, we'll have to live with this for now, or switch to batik.
