IMO a simple change would fix the options issue. (The -z option has been
a shortcut for the deprecated --without-gui option):

This works for me in case the output file is PNG. Could you test the PDF
case?

To also fix the dblatex docs, two more patches would be needed; all
three patches are attached.

Author: Wolfgang Schweer <wschw...@arcor.de> Description: Adjust Inkscape options for SVG conversion Inkscape removed the -z option (--without-gui shortcut) and deprecated the --without-gui, --export-png and --export-pdf options (among others). Now, --export-filename and/or --export-type are needed, --without-gui is the default for commandline usage.
