Status comment: Affects upgrades from Mageia 5

Description David Walser 2016-08-12 18:46:30 CEST
Installing the latest package updates from this morning results in the Graphical GRUB having a solid back background with no artwork.  For GRUB2 it looks fine.

I'll have a look at what I've broken, just hope I can make my system boot with grub for testing.

You'll need a system that was upgraded from a Mageia 5 installation to make that work.

Moving to blocker status for now, until it is investigated.  I'm not sure if this can be fixed post release or not.

Priority: Normal => release_blocker

Comment 4 Donald 2016-10-09 20:15:56 CEST
Not a blocker as it should be fixable with a mageia-theme update, and it should be fixed with mageia-theme-6.1.

Status: ASSIGNED => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED

Could you describe what exactly was broken?
So that we know how to fix it gain if it would happen again.

I don't know which option was wrong, but previously, converting the png to jpg using gwenview was sufficient, so something must have changed to cause the behavior seen previously. 

It was fixed for me on a test with mga 5s grub, I couldn't get mga 6 to boot on my laptop with grub 1.

If someone can confirm that would be great. 

As the conversion is just using ImageMagick, I'll switch it so that it happens automatically at build time to hopefully prevent this from happening again. Just wanted to get this fixed first.
