Package: www.debian.org
Version: N/A; reported 2002-01-20
Severity: normal

This page gives an account of an error which crept into the current
Debian logo when/since it was first adopted:

http://www.hands.com/~phil/debian/logo/readme.html

I noticed recently that the logo which gdm uses by default is the
damaged version.  The maintainer says he used the version from this page:

http://www.debian.org/logos/

...and that (quite properly) he won't fix it except by using a new
version from that page.

I have checked, and, while all the JPEG, PNG, EPS and PDF versions of
the logo seem to be correct, the Gimp ".xcf" and XFig ".fig" versions
are incorrect.  Please would you regenerate the following files from the
(corrent) EPS or PDF files, thus helping banish the old, broken logo
from the face of the earth?  Thanks.

http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo.xcf.gz
http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo-nd.xcf.gz
http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo.fig
http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo-nd.fig

The following files are not broken (they were apparently produced from
the original by GS's epswrite driver, so they should be reliable):

http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo.eps
http://www.debian.org/logos/openlogo-nd.eps

Thanks.

I've just added svg versions of the logos to the website.  I think that
closes this bug.
