You should use the CVS version instead if you want to use these features,
I guess.  On thuban.intevation.de you'll be guided on how to access the
CVS repository anonymously.  The README then tells you to run
	python setup.py install_local

After that it should be sufficient to add the the following lines
to your ~/.thuban/thubanstart.py file:

  import Extensions.svgexport.svgsaver
  import Extensions.svgexport.maplegend

If you don't have that file already, just create it with this content.

Remember that this will probably not work with the Debian package
and may end up in Python errors.
