Hi,

thanks for maintaining KDE!

both kdm and gwenview cannot display complex svg correctly. The attached file
can be viewed by inkview without problem, also gimp+inkscape work well. All in
wheezy.

I guess some library is to blame but I'm not sure which. Please reassign as
appropriate.


cheers,
	Holger

Hi,

The KDE bug tracker already contains a bug for this. But apparently it won't be fixed soon :(

kdm was last released with Debian 8 (jessie) in April 2015
and was removed from the Debian archive afterwards.
It has been superseded by sddm.
See https://bugs.debian.org/803635 for details on the removal.
I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.

Wooa, this is an old one!

The real culprit here is Qt's SVG rendering engine. It has never been up to
task.

I am ressigning to qtbase-opensource-src, the oldest I can currently find with
rmadison, because... it's as old as Qt 5 itself.

I am also marking it as wontfix, as clearly the situation has not improved
along all these years. I still need to check what's the Qt 6 status on
this....
