Title:
  ImageMagick 2 years old, fails to convert some svgs; fixed upstream

Status in imagemagick package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The version of convert (ImageMagick) in Ubuntu is rather outdated:

  $ lsb_release -d
  Description:    Ubuntu Hirsute Hippo (development branch)
  $ convert --version
  Version: ImageMagick 6.9.10-23 Q16 x86_64 20190101 https://imagemagick.org
  Copyright: © 1999-2019 ImageMagick Studio LLC

  If I try to convert an svg into a png, it fails:

  $ convert tux_mono.svg  large.png
  convert-im6.q16: unrecognized color `radialGradient29032' @ warning/color.c/GetColorCompliance/1052.
  convert-im6.q16: non-conforming drawing primitive definition `fill' @ error/draw.c/RenderMVGContent/4300.

  The source image is this one:

  However, the newest version from upstream is fine.

  $ ~/Downloads/magick --version
  Version: ImageMagick 7.0.10-59 Q16 x86_64 2021-01-23 https://imagemagick.org
  Copyright: (C) 1999-2021 ImageMagick Studio LLC

  $ ~/Downloads/magick convert tux_mono.svg  large.png
  # works perfectly.

  Please would you package a more current release, and make it available in 21.04 and 20.04.
  Thanks.
