Package: xplanet
Version: 1.2.1-4
Severity: important
Xplanet generates almost unreadable text labels (text from markers
file). Between text and background texture there is some greyish noise
instead of black frames. This noise renders text unreadable. I made a
test image, there is 3 labels with different font sizes and colors.
Marker rings are clear. Please see the test image.
Appled command line:
xplanet -config konffi -body earth -geometry 5400x5400 -transpng
xplanet-test.png -num_times 1 -lat 36 -lon 138 -radius 300 -projection
