We request you to uninstall Aspose.SVG for .NET package and install Aspose.SVG.Drawing.SkiaSharp in your project. It is designed to work under non-Windows environments. In case you still face any issues, please let us know.

Actually, if we downgrade the following it works, however if we try the latest versions it is broken …

    <PackageReference Include="Aspose.SVG" Version="25.4.0" />
    <PackageReference Include="Aspose.SVG.Drawing.SkiaSharp" Version="25.4.0" />
    <PackageReference Include="SkiaSharp.NativeAssets.Linux" Version="3.116.0" />

Versiom 25.5.0 and 3.119.1 fail, with error above.

@bhutfless

Would you please only try using below package(s) and remove Aspose.SVG?

<PackageReference Include="Aspose.SVG.Drawing.SkiaSharp" Version="25.5.0" />

OR

<PackageReference Include="Aspose.SVG.Drawing.SkiaSharp" Version="25.5.0" />
<PackageReference Include="SkiaSharp.NativeAssets.Linux" Version="3.116.0" />

In case issue still persists, please share a sample console application in .zip format with us so that we can further proceed to investigate accordingly.

Please try to use the Skia-linked build alone and pull the macOS native Skia assets:

<ItemGroup>
  <!-- contains Aspose.SVG + Skia bindings – do *not* add Aspose.SVG -->
  <PackageReference Include="Aspose.SVG.Drawing.SkiaSharp" Version="25.5.0" />

  <!-- macOS/Apple-silicon dylibs – NOT the Linux ones -->
  <PackageReference Include="SkiaSharp.NativeAssets.macOS" Version="3.116.1" />
</ItemGroup>

Remove the plain Aspose.SVG reference and any SkiaSharp.NativeAssets.Linux line.
The .macOS assets ship the right .dylib files; the Linux pack only has .so, which is why SkiaModule couldn’t load and the compiler couldn’t see SkiaSharp.

Proof-of-life repo - We pushed a minimal repro to GitHub that builds and runs on the free GitHub Actions macOS-14 Apple-silicon runner:

Repo: GitHub - victordeviatov/SvgMacTest: Test Aspose.SVG on MAC OS
Passing run (net8.0, M1): Create macos-build.yml · victordeviatov/SvgMacTest@e91ea4b · GitHub

If you need a full sample to copy, just clone the repo above and drop your own code in.

We really hope this helps.
