Error when compiling menu.less

Joomla. I get an error when compiling the menu.less file

Error
expected color value: failed at `color: fade(@white, 75%)!important; ` ......../templates/gk_quark//less/menu.less on line 252

An error occurred. Failed to compile.

I need to change the @dark colour to @white and when I clicked the "compile LESS" button, I get the error.

Hi

I'm not sure why this error appeared, but I would solve it by compiling LESS into CSS with default black value and than change it to white in CSS directly.

Sorry, but that does not truly fix the issue. The benefits of the less file are lost doing this.

I did notice a double slash in the URL, does that have anything to do with it?

"...templates/gk_quark//less/menu.less..."

In further research it looks like it has something to do with the fade(@...) when you replace the @white with #ffffff it compiles fine.
