Could you please comment on this Debian bug report by
Fabien Ninoles <fabien@hawkmoon.TZoNE.ORG> (cf.
http://bugs.debian.org/152969\):
When exporting text+graph in SVG, text appears too low
in the resulting file. You have to add an offset equal
to the distance between the top bounding rect and the
anchor y coordinate.
This represent a single line change in
/usr/lib/sketch-0.6.13/Plugins/Filters/svgsaver.py.
The patch is attached.
Patch to Plugins/Filters/svgsaver.py

I think Sketch does the right thing without the patch. Batik
1.5 shows the text at the correct position.
Sodipodi OTOH (I used version 0.24.1.0.20020325-1, the
debian package :) ) shows the text at the wrong position.
Without the patch the text is too low, with the patch it's
too high.
Unless I get a better argument that Sketch is wrong here, I
won't do anything about it.
