Kindle Weather Display WITHOUT server

Hello everybody, and merry Christmas!

For Christmas, I received a new PaperWhite so I decided to play around with my old K4-NT. I am trying to get the Kindle Weather Display as detailed here to work, but without a separate web server. So far, here is what I have accomplished:
  • Jailbroken the Kindle
  • Installed usbnet (from here)
  • Installed python (from here)

I have attached the script files I have modified and am using to this post in a zip. Currently, everything runs well except for the svg to png conversion. Python also throws an error (see directly below), but the script still runs.

Code:
system: I framework:def:stopping booklet framework
com.lab126.powerd failed to access property state (0x3 lipcErrNoSuchSource)
Stopping Power Management Daemon: /mnt/us/python/usr/bin/python: /usr/lib/libz.so.1: no version information available (required by /mnt/us/python/usr/bin/python)
/mnt/us/python/usr/bin/python: /mnt/us/python/usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.0: no version information available (required by /mnt/us/python/usr/bin/python)
/mnt/us/python/usr/bin/python: /mnt/us/python/usr/lib/libssl.so.1.0.0: no version information available (required by /mnt/us/python/usr/bin/python)
/mnt/us/weather/2download-weather.sh: line 6: rsvg-convert: not found
sh: missing ]
The problem I am having now is getting a version of rsvg-convert or ImageMagick to either build or install the binary on my Kindle. Does anyone have any advice for this? I figure once I get the image conversion figured out, the kite installation and cron will be easy.
