the fields in the attribute table as reported by GDAL are
Red, Green, Blue, Opacity, min, max, Class_Names
the first entry is
0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, flat
the pixel value 1 has the correct label "flat", but the color rule is wrong.
Looking at the Color Table (RGB with 11 entries) as reported by GDAL,
the first two entries are
0: 0,0,0,0
1: 220,220,220,255
this is correct, but different from the attribute table reported by
GDAL. The attribute table has thus correct labels but wrong colors.
The attribute table as created by GRASS contains in this case only
pixel values and labels, because it difficult to merge labels and
color rules. In GRASS, color rules and category labels are completely
separate, you can e.g. have 10 labels and 20 color rules. GDAL failed
to merge labels and color rules.
