That looks like a similar problem I had with a big update for FC5. Here It 
ended up with 2 versions of librsvg installed, and it proved a bit of a 
problem to remove the earlier version "librsvg2-2.14.2-1.i386".  With another 
fresh install of FC5, I updated librsvg before doing any of the other 
updates, and librsvg upgraded ok, leaving only the newest version. Then I did 
an apt-get dist-upgrade, and had no problems.

I know it's not much help if you've ended up with 2 versions of librsvg, and 
was a bit of trial and error to get rid of the earlier version.
