I mentioned bug #70335 (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70335) in a message yesterday. This bug report started with a problem in the Smudge tool and Gaussian Blur plug-ins, but after some investigation I discovered that 27 plug-ins, two tools and the layer previews are also affected by the same problem.
Although this is the same general problem in all cases (the operations should be performed on pixels that are pre-multiplied with the alpha channel and then converted back afterwards), the code in these plug-ins is very different and will probably require different solutions for every case. This means that it is likely that the bug will be fixed in some parts of the code long before it is fixed in the other parts (for example, I already fixed the bug in the Gradient Map plug-in and Sven included the fix in 1.2.3). In Mozilla's Bugzilla, what is usually done in this case is to submit individual bug reports for all parts of the code that are likely to be fixed separately and to have a separate "tracking bug" that depends on all of these bug reports (this can be the original bug report converted into a tracking bug, or a new one). I think this is a good idea, but this increases the number of bug reports. Before creating 30 new bug reports, I would like to know if this is the way we want to handle these problems... -Raphaël _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
