view in $SRC/share/screens/about.pt_BR.svg

idea is include background.svg; see:

    <image
       id="backgroundimport"
       sodipodi:absref="background.svg"
       xlink:href="backgound.svg"
       x="5.7103271"
       y="1.1230202"
       width="734.99194"
       height="622.82935" />

I believe that the SVG specification allows this, but currently this is not possible in inkscape. If you use File->Import... to include an svg file, then you just include the original objects, but there is no link to the original file.

If you do what you are suggesting, you get a bitmap version of the file instead (rasterized at 90 dpi of the original image, I think). There is a request in the bug tracker for improved handling of this, if you'd like to make suggestions about it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/171795

Can you help with this problem?
