First of all currently there is no support for SVGZ file in Nautilus. See bug #4836 [1] The solution proposed on this bug seems to work: applying the attached patch to shared-mime-info, SVGZ file are recognized ad image/svg+xml in Properties dialog. But no preview in Nautilus... Can someone more experienced about nautilus thumbnailer explore it? Of course it could be an issue in librsvg, but rsvg-view [2] is able to open and show it. Maybe the GDK pixbuf loader? Oh, a SVGZ file from currently under development HighContrast theme is attached too. To create a plain SVG file rename it as *.svg.gz, then gunzip it. [1] On fd.o, of course, 'cause we depend on shared-mime-info. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4836 [2] latest cairo-only on head
