Materia-theme: Some SVG assets become black with librsvg 2.41.2

[sbsbs15]

Hi @nana-4 , recently I updated the theme (package materia-theme-git from AUR) and noticed that assets used to display indicators in gnome-shell dash (I'm using Dash to dock too) are now black.

Using gtk 3.22.26.

Thanks for your work!!

[nana-4]

Hi, thank you for your report!

For the moment, I cannot reproduce it and I have no idea why they become black...

Could you tell me the version of Dash to dock you are using?

[sbsbs15]

Yes! I'm using Dash to dock v61, but I updated to version 62 now and the issue persist.
I noticed that viewing the assets folder from nautilus indicators are displayed black too.

I don't know what happens because my laptop updated with the same packages don't have this issue...

maybe a librsvg issue, try to downgrade it?

[sbsbs15]

Exactly! Problem with librsvg 2.41.2, downgrading to 2.41.0 all work fine.
Thanks @bil-elmoussaoui!

not all heros wear capes :laughing:

Exactly! Problem with librsvg 2.41.2, downgrading to 2.41.0 all work fine.

Is it a bug of librsvg and you can give a link to it, or some SGVs in this repo should be fixed for the new version of librsvg and the current issue should be opened?

[nana-4]

@bil-elmoussaoui Thank you for answering instead of me!

@AlexWayfer Exactly.

I have not confirmed yet, but I think this is a bug of the upstream librsvg (because those SVGs won't become black in web browsers, etc). And we may need a workaround until upstream fixes this bug...

Anyway I would like to reopen this until the issue is properly handled.

Changelog between patch-versions isn't small. So, what about version 2.41.1?

[actionless]

i've fixed it like that: https://github.com/actionless/oomox-archdroid-icon-theme/commit/86ff3f5efab95a3b3f755163a6e36be4e9aa25cf

[nana-4]

@actionless Thanks!

I guess the fill attribute no longer inherits to child elements (only when it's in the <svg> element?) on the new version of librsvg.

I’d report it to the upstream when I confirm it.

[nana-4]

Now I reported this issue to the upstream: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/librsvg/issues/181

[nana-4]

I've added a workaround for gnome-shell & metacity. So now it should work well in those environments with librsvg 2.41.2.

However this problem still remains in Unity, so I'd like to rename and keep opening this issue.

[actionless]

in 2.42.0 it seems still unfixed

[nana-4]

Good news. Upstream fixed the bug and will appear in 2.42.1. So I'd like to close this issue.
