As I understand it, you can license derivative work with any later
version of the license with CC-by-SA 2.0. What's unclear to me is when
it become derivative work.

Thanks !
I had little success so far contacting the authors. The authors of the
original images from the tango theme where helpful, but they can't
relicence a derivative work, of course. It seem the authors of the
modified images didn't bother to change the copyright section of the svg
files, which makes them difficult to track down.
