    </p>
    <p>I did the same and the legend indicates a change magnitude but if
      I subtract the geopackage raster from the original, all pixels
      equal zero.</p>

            a four band (Red,Green, Blue,Alpha) dataset, which gives the
            maximum compatibility with the various encodings of tiles

          <p>The problem could be when QGIS Reads the file, not when it
            writes the file.  I explains why we see 4 bands but not why
            values are changing.  I would make a bug report or ask the

                                  everybody. I have an issue regarding
                                  the Geopackage format. I have tried to
                                  import a singleband raster file (it
                                  represents the land cover, thus every
                                  pixel has a single integer value
                                  corresponding to the land cover
                                  class), but this operation seems to
                                  modify the raster characteristics: the
                                  raster becomes a 4-bands raster and
                                  the pixels values change accordingly
                                  (basically, the original raster is
                                  saved in the Geopackage as an RGB
                                  image). It seems to be a bug of QGIS.
                                  I have also tried to use GDAL
                                  translate through the processing
                                  toolbox of QGIS to convert the TIFF
                                  file to a Geopackage file, but the
                                  result is the same.</span></p>
