Cannot load .svg to label to images

[Someone]

Hello, i am trying to add an .svg label to images using Python-fu, but getting an unhelpful error code when trying to load the .svg

My console text:

➤> pdb.gimp_path_import(image, "label.svg", TRUE, FALSE)

the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
RuntimeError: execution error

I am guessing this is a path problem.  New to this stuff, any tips would be appreciated, thanks!
