The instructions need to have "sudo pip install svgwrite" added to step 4.

why do you need SVG drawings. ??

Confirmed, when installing on Raspbian 2015-05-05, the {simplecv} command complains about missing svgwrite:

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ simplecv 
ERROR:

Adding that I got the same error with Raspbian Jessie - 09/24/15 - Kernel version: 4.1.

Here it is in action:
simplecv-svg-error

you installed svgwrite?

sudo pip install svgwrite

any fixes to this issue?
