I opened /usr/share/images/desktop-base/debian-background.svg
from desktop-base in dia without problems. I did both opening
the file directly as well as including it in an image object.
I'm using dia and dia-gnome on etch, same version as yours,

Could you please send your SVG file as an attachment to this bug?
