Please test and give positive karma :) https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/desktop-backgrounds-9.0.0-14,go ddar d-backgrounds-13.0.0-1.fc13 Hi Martin, this update switches from PNG to JPG - this breaks KDE theming. KSplashX even does not support JPG as splash background. Could be -kde subpackage shipping PNG's a solution? Kevin Kofler prepared initial JPG support patch for KSplashX but it's probably too late to do a proper testing. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=584603 Argh, sorry about the breakage, this time I remembered about desktop-backgrounds and such, but forgot you depend on this for KDM and KSplash as well (and for the packaging I just take what I'm given and I always thought there were problems neither with PNGs nor JPGs [we used both formats for our backgrounds in the past])... After reading the bug, I'm not sure if you still need the PNGs? IMHO the best solution at this point would be to put a PNG copy (you could even generate it at build time from one of the JPGs with e.g. ImageMagick) into the KSplash package. For others -- perhaps we should, starting with F14, use only PNGs for backgrounds, or at least do *not* change the format post beta? I was out on Friday and whole weekend as I was organizing Openmobility conference. Rex worked on it, I'm about checking his fix. I'll let you know asap. Would be great for F-14 to go with PNG only, format change after beta is problem and same problem is applying Kevin's fix for KSplash - it's too late for inclusion to F-13. Maybe we can try to make it possible to F-14 but the reason for limited support of fileformats is speed - splash should be as quick as possible - so currently KSplash even isn't proper Qt application. So we should check performance impact first.
