Usually, the gradients get messed up when they're missing some data that is supposed to be in there and they get optimized with SVG Cleaner. If you ever see `Warning: The 'stop' element must have an 'offset' attribute. Fallback to 'offset=0'.`, you need to check the gradients.

  Most common problems for me are: (1) path that is correctly displayed but can't be edited with Inkscape, just moved around and (2) gradient correctly displayed but Inkscape's UI says the filling is "?" instead of gradient. You can check (2) with current 48x48 icon for Konsole/terminal, the shape is the ">" symbol.
