The package zim depends on gtk2-perl but dies with an error about an unknown file type. The source code dies on a call to Gtk2::Gdk::Pixbuf to load an svg file. Installing librsvg fixes the problem.

This is a dependency for zim then, as gtk2-perl just bails out on a program that doesn't do the correct things when loading files. If I make a program with gtk2-perl that loads WMF files, my program would need libwmf as dependency, not gtk2-perl.

Yeah, I wasn't too sure about this one - I thought maybe gtk2-perl should be able to handle svg files by default. I'll be adding librsvg to zim anyways.
