 Thanks for your report.

 /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0/loaders/svg_loader.so belongs to
 librsvg2-common, if it was unusable, it is a librsvg2-common bug.  What
 version of librsvg2-common were you using *prior* to the upgrade?
 (Check your aptitude.log or dpkg.log.)

 The problem would be an incorrect dependency of librsvg2-common on
 librsvg2-2, or a regression in librsvg2-2 (symbols removed).

 This is a separate bug, it seems Gtk should force a stronger dependency
 on libglib2.0-0 (it currently only requires >= 2.10.0 as the shlibs
 said, but the message you quote implies it needs >= 2.10.1).

 Gtk's NEWS indeed say:
    at least GLib-2.10.1 is required now

   Thanks,
