Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):
Example:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Map_of_New_York_highlighting_Rockland_County.svg
What happens?:
There is a white (transparent?) background and a red area indicating the Rockland County.
What should have happened instead?:
There should be a map underneath. See archived version of the example
Other information (browser name/version, screenshots, etc.):
There are many more maps with this problem. I guess it may be related to T265549: Update librsvg to version > 2.44.10 (2.50.3).
EDIT:
That file and some others were fixed by @Nux. Still there are probably many more. I don't know if users of Commons know about this issue and how to deal with it, but if they were properly informed, you can close this ticket.
