Version: 12.0.1
Severity: normal

Hi,

When building the package on bullseye, I'm getting transparency on both
left and right borders. When building it on sid, I'm get that at the
bottom. It would be great if we had some better or at least reproducible
export.

Since this was ringing a bell, I've just checked the debian-installer
repository and I already tweaked the file a little there, for similar
reasons:

Hello maintainers of rootskel-gtk,
additional options.
If the option `--background-color black` is used, all transparency will
be pre-rendered and the image will have no transparency left.

The colour black would be suitable, since that would match the
'nothingness' at the border of the screen.

The slight stretching of the svg image in [1] could then be reverted.

Old:
rsvg-convert $(SPLASH_SVG) > $(SPLASH_PNG);
New:
rsvg-convert --background-color black $(SPLASH_SVG) > $(SPLASH_PNG);


With kind regards,
Roland Clobus
