User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Fedora; Linux x86_64; rv:46.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/46.0 Build Identifier: I use gpick a lot, after new install of 23 I reinstalled it but it can't seem to pick colours, it just picks black. I tried reinstalling it, same problem. So then I tried the picker in gimp and that has the same issue. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open gpick or gimp 2. try to pick a colour using the pipette tool 3. it just selects black Actual Results: it picks black Expected Results: should pick the colour under the pointer
Moving to gpick maintainer for debugging. Are you using a gnome/wayland session by chance?
ah yes, good call, I am using wayland to avoid this https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1316877 which has caused some really serious overheating
actually, just tried this now in wayland, on the off chance, and it;s still the same
Rendering issue is on Wayland.
Ah yes, it I wasn't back in gnome, Log out, change to gnome, log in does not seem to be working right, I had to reboot a few times to get out of wayland. I sould probably report that too!

I filed the bug to upstream. See https://github.com/thezbyg/gpick/issues/133
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '23'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Moved to rawhide because the issue is upstream
The issue is upstream, but we should have a list of Wayland not supported apps for Fedora users to refer to.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 26 development cycle. Changing version to '26'.
Pushing to rawhide as there is currently no method to properly sample a colour within Wayland session.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 28 development cycle. Changing version to '28'.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 30 development cycle. Changing version to '30.
