From: José Matos Date: Tue, 28 May 2019 15:22:32 +0000 (+0100) Subject: Attempt to fix #11457 X-Git-Tag: 2.3.4~36 X-Git-Url: https://git.lyx.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b1860e301acfef3586143d240ae00716beb8c61c;p=features.git Attempt to fix #11457 In python 3 the colors need to be strings and not bytes: This was the equivalent of >> print("%s" % b"1") "b'1'" since the colors were bytes the call to dvipng was something like dvipng -Ttight -depth -height -D 115 -fg "b'rgb 0.937255 0.941176 0.945098'" -bg "b'rgb 0.137255 0.149020 0.160784'" "lyxpreviewxBJEqm.dvi" Note the "b'rgb after both -fg and -bg that wrecked havoc and thus dvipng failed. That was the difference between python2 and python3 calls.
