Triaging to kde-workspace for now, though this is more likely a change in meld (kde differences between f20 and f21 are very minor) Seems to similar to bug #1118898. I would argue this is a meld bug, it seems to unconditionally use a black background for unchanged text, regardless of active color scheme (which obviously can lead to problems if text contrast vs. this hard-coded black is too low) Re-assigning... Created attachment 974157 [details] meld-3.13-screenshot I followed [1] and have cloned the latest meld sources and the issue seems to be fixed (git: 936b6ab). [1] http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.meld.general/2241 I also could reproduce it and it is very annoying (unchanged text is not visible at all). Possibly it is introduced by: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/commits-list/2014-October/msg01998.html https://mail.gnome.org/archives/commits-list/2014-October/msg05560.html I also tried and commenting lines: fixes_provider.load_from_data( "MeldSourceView { background-color: rgba(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0); } " "MeldSourceView:selected { background-color: %s; } " % color) in /usr/bin/meld solve problem for me. I've attach screenshot how it looks by default. Please try to use the 3.13 [2] version from koji. [2] http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=602522 +1 on fix: Same thing occurring in stock Gnome-3 desktop as well. (Upgraded system from ƒ20, not clean install, however.) Identical presentation (solid black outside of diff regions; text visible when highlighted). Koji build meld.noarch 0:3.13.0-1.fc22 → works fine. This is fixed in upstream meld 3.12.3. Any chance of pushing out an update? meld-3.12.3-1.fc21 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 21. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/meld-3.12.3-1.fc21 Package meld-3.12.3-1.fc21: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 21 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing meld-3.12.3-1.fc21' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-1092/meld-3.12.3-1.fc21 then log in and leave karma (feedback). meld-3.12.3-1.fc21 has been pushed to the Fedora 21 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. Thank you very much. And very sorry for late response. |
Created attachment 974134 [details] meld screenshot Description of problem: File comparision in meld is unreadable under KDE (see attached screenshot). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): $ rpm -qv meld meld-3.12.1-1.fc21.noarch kde: 4.14.3 (fully updated to updates-testing as of now). How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce (just to be sure we're using defaults): 1. Create a new user 'kdetest' 2. Login as 'kdetest' using 'KDE Plasma Workspace' 3. launch 'meld' /etc/services /etc/services Actual results: Text to compare is unreadable. Expected results: Text should be readable. Additional info: On F20 there wasn't such an issue.
