The package name, which can be found between the brackets, will tell you more about the add-on. Search for this package name in the Software Center. Below the package details are a list of add-ons. The one you mention (Libsvg-perl) is visible in the screenshot below:
For any add-ons you want info on, just re-do your search for that package name.

That seems strange to me, as I can find the package you mentioned without problems. As an alternative, use
apt-cache show libsvg-perl

thanks, I can see the description when type "apt-cache show libsvg-perl", but not in the software center– yumanJul 15, 2012 at 8:09
