You made the mistake of removing all svg:tags. They are essential to
create the image.
 Read my post on
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2007-April/msg00095.html
and

I think you have found a bug inside your script.
Compare with preferences-desktop-accessibilityR.svg I posted[1] and
observe the change.
The trick is to remove Remove only non svg: such as <xpacket> inside
<svg: metadata> along with extras space and manually remove unneccesary
<svg:path> inside <svg:g>. Highlight one faulty <svg:path> to spot the
bogus layer in Inkscape image to remove it. Save it with Inkscape. That
should restore the foreground.

The method may be long but it works. So far, I have fixed my own
software-update svgs updated this way. I will be able to post the change
on the wiki later tonight.
