[Bug 1043129] Re: [UIFe] Black borders on some active controls

 

Accepted.   It appears that accepting this is the lesser of the two
evils,  please get uploaded ASAP and be prepared to react quickly to
revert if necessary.

Bug description:
  UIFe request :
  Currently, the GTK3 theme has some bugs exposed by the new version of gtk3 and unico. It needs to be updated to the new versions to display correctly.
  But, currently, the only solution we have is to massively modify the theme, which make a diff between the 2 versions very big. Also, such changes make the gtk3 widget a lot better, but changes a bit the way gtk3 widgets looks like.

  The new updated theme was already tested by the designers and me, with
  no problem.

  Considering the Lubuntu documentation is gathered on
  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation, with a very
  few screenshots up-to-date, the impact for the documentation should be
  very low.

  Also, Lubuntu is still using GTK2 a lot, so the changes are limited to
  several "support" application (archive, update-manager ...).

  I attached a screenshot of an example of one of the most impacted
  application (to the left side is before the update, the right side is
  after).

  A package is available for testing in my PPA :

  Original bug report :
  Some GTK controls, specially checkboxes (appear as a square ignoring the "x"), progressbars, buttons and tabs have a black border. It doesn't happen on inactive controls, which respect the colour definitions.
