    <p>Hi Bernd,</p>
    <p>You're right the xml's on the repo do point to non-existent
      folders.</p>
    <p>I've added a FGDC folder to the repo with the correct folder
      structure. Copy that folder (FGDC) into one of QGIS svg path
      folders and you can then use the xml files to import the svg
      symbols.<br>
    </p>
    <p>Cheers,<br>
      Benoit</p>

      <p>Hi Benoit,</p>
      <p><br>
      </p>
      <p>sorry for the confusion. I specifically refer to your answer
        and the linked project. There is a svg-folder and a folder with
        the xml-files from the download.</p>
      <p>Setting the path to the svg-folder and then importing the xml

      <p>As you refered to this project, I assumed that you successfully
