Gradient fill not working in CVS Head

Hi there,

I am going out right now, and have no time to fill a proper bug report.
I was working, and noted that gradient fill is working poorly in CVS HEAD - the first color, or beggning of the first segment of the gradient, is taking up almost all the area to be filled.

Anyway, the fill is far from being linear. I took a look at the Changelog and saw no gradient related stuff but the recent patch that showed up in this list.

Anyway, could someone confirm the bug, and fill the bug report/fix it?

Regards,

JS ->

I cannot reproduce this here.

If you are doing a gradient from a dark to a light color, it won't look linear unless you gamma-correct your display. The color-picker should show you that the color values are linearily distributed.

It might be a problem caused by some library on my system. We have to isolate it, nonetheless.

Actually, it is not gamma related. I have attached the files to bug 129931 for everyone involved to take a look.
