["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Reproducible in latest release available from Ubuntu (libcairo
1.13.0~20140204-0ubuntu1). As well, another WORKAROUND is to open this
in chromium-browser or chrome via built-in PDF viewer (not Firefox).

Title:
  [Upstream] Exporting pdf from LibreOffice with smooth gradient
  displays striped in Evince, shows correctly in Adobe Reader

Status in Evince document viewer:
  Unknown
Status in libcairo  -  cairo vector graphics library:
  Confirmed
Status in cairo package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 11.04
  Release:	11.04

  2) apt-cache policy evince
  evince:
    Installed: 2.32.0-0ubuntu12.2
    Candidate: 2.32.0-0ubuntu12.2
    Version table:
   *** 2.32.0-0ubuntu12.2 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty-updates/main i386 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       2.32.0-0ubuntu12 0

  3) What is expected in Impress via the Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cairo/+bug/164233/+attachment/2281555/+files/example.odp
  && loimpress -nologo example.odp

  export the file with Gradient 1 inserted into the background to pdf (
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cairo/+bug/164233/+attachment/2281556/+files/example.pdf
  ), open the pdf with Evince and it looks as it does in both Impress
  and Adobe Reader.

  4) What happens instead is Evince shows a striped gradient.

  WORKAROUND: Open with chromium-browser or chrome built-in PDF reader
  (not Firefox).

  Use Adobe Reader.
