Description George Sicherman 2016-02-27 22:57:26 UTC
Created attachment 1131174 [details]
The PBM file containing the output of pnmpaste as used above.

Description of problem:

     Pngpaste can produce erroneous output when used on PBM files.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

     10.66.02-5.fc22

How reproducible:

1. Run these NetPBM commands:

      $ pbmmake -white 12 12 > /tmp/w.pbm
      $ pbmmake -black 4 4 > /tmp/b.pbm
      $ pnmpaste 4 4 /tmp/b.pbm /tmp/w.pbm > /tmp/bug.pbm
      $

2. Examine /tmp/bug.pbm with a picture manipulator such as the
GIMP, or run pnmtopng on /tmp/bug.pbm and examing the output
with any graphic browser.

Actual results:  the output picture is a 12x12 white square with
  a 4x7 black rectangle.

Expected results:  the output picture is a 12x12 white square
  with a centered 4x4 black square.

Additional info:  I have not tested this bug with PGM or PPM files.

Comment 1 George Sicherman 2016-02-27 23:01:00 UTC
I reported the pnmpaste command incorrectly.  The correct command is:

    $ pnmpaste /tmp/b.pbm 4 4 /tmp/w.pbm > /tmp/bug.pbm

Comment 2 George Sicherman 2016-02-27 23:03:10 UTC
The bug does not appear when I use PGM files instead of
PBM files.

Comment 3 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2016-07-11 10:15:16 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2016-07-19 20:00:46 UTC
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 5 George Sicherman 2016-07-22 13:57:44 UTC
I have carried this bug forward to Fedora 23.  It persists there.

Comment 6 George Sicherman 2016-07-22 14:19:45 UTC
I just tested this bug on a Sempron (i686) system running Fedora 24.  The output is correct.  The problem may exist only on 64-bit systems.

Comment 7 Josef Ridky 2016-08-05 08:24:04 UTC
New release of netpbm package is available. I was trying to reproduce described bug and the result is same as expected result. (Tested on 64bit Fedora 24)

Please try:
  sudo dnf --enablerepos=updates-testing upgrade netpbm*

and check, if described problem persist for you or not.

If described bug will not persist, please close this bug.

Comment 8 George Sicherman 2016-08-05 13:42:00 UTC
Thank you for testing the bug with the latest version of NetPBM.  I do not own a 64-bit Fedora 24 system, so I cannot test it myself.  I will trust your testing, and assume that the bug will be gone after I upgrade my 64-bit system to Fedora 24.

I am closing this bug report.
