Drawings exported as SVG contain a large section (~2.5KB) of <defs> with class "EmbeddedBulletChars" which don't appear to be part of / needed for the drawing.
Thank you for reporting the bug. Please attach a sample document, as this makes it easier for us to verify the bug. (Please note that the attachment will be public, remove any sensitive information before attaching it. See https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FAQ#How_can_I_eliminate_confidential_data_from_a_sample_document.3F for help on how to do so.) I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' once the requested document is provided.
Created attachment 155289 [details] SVG file with section "EmbeddedBulletChars" The section of this file from line 50 to line 81 contains definitions which are not used anywhere in the file. This SVG file was generated using the same ODG file supplied with bug 128265.
Bibisected with Linux bibisect-43all to range: https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+log/7c4d3ea6ba4d42b4dda5148a00c8c411b5d7703d..5b195fbcf7a441aeb193f6abd08b877e580938e0 Plenty of SVG commits in that one. I'm not sure I would call this a regression in its usual sense.
Uff, sorry for not mentioning: can be easily reproduced by drawing a rectangle and exporting to SVG
