Gradients rendered in reverse

This bug has been opened here: https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=16025 "Maybe this is really an Inkscape bug, but here goes... I was working on a wallpaper for Breezy (using Inkscape) and discovered that EOG, gThumb and all Gnome apps reverse some of the gradients compared to what I see in Inkscape (v0.42). The soon-to-be-attached screenshot is from a Breezy box. Look at the lower gradient on the globe. Viewing the svg in Hoary also caused the globe gradient to be reversed but additionally reversed one of the gradients on the surf board... https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/attachment.cgi?id=3969 Screenshot of EOG vs Inkscape rendering the same SVG in different ways. ... https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/attachment.cgi?id=4000 How the surfing badger looks in Hoary (with librsvg (no inkscape)) That would be Inkscape. The attachment shows how it renders in Hoary. Check out the gradient on the board compared to the Breezy renders... ... > thanks. could you attach an .svg having the issue to the bug? ... https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/attachment.cgi?id=4258 Notice the bottom gradient on the globe in Inkscape vs Eog et al. Here is the surfing badger depicted in the various screenshots attached to this bug."
From my estimation, the whitest bit of the bottom gradient circle should go from the cape of good hope, through the Indian ocean and run aground somewhere in Oman or the UAE just south of the Persian Gulf. Could you clarify which versions of which programs do this and which ones do not, because for some reason these pictures seem inconsistant. Thank you.
Created attachment 53160 [details] Screenshot corresponding to attachment http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/attachment.cgi?id=4258 Cheers; I was othe one opening the Ubuntu bug. Everything is default Ubuntu Breezy versions. That would be: Inkscape: 0.42-1build1 EOG: 2.12.1-0ubuntu2 librsvg2: 2.12.5-0ubuntu1 You're correct that there are inconsistensies in my attachments. My bad. First of all please not that https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/attachment.cgi?id=4000 does not use the above mentioned versions. I've attached a grand unified screenshot with the apps in question (including about boxes and "dpkg -l librsvg2-2" output). This screenshot shows how the apps render this attachment: http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/attachment.cgi?id=4258
This image renders perfectly with rsvg-cairo but not with rsvg-art. I think it might actually be a libart problem.
Ok, all fixed now on the art backend as well.
