Title:
  Mouse over hints / tooltips show no text

Status in Inkscape:
  New
Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu:

Status in inkscape package in Debian:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Inkscape works well but there is a very annoying bug regarding the
  hints (tooltips) that pop up when moving the mouse over the icons.

  EXPECTED: A tooltip pops up and displays are human readable text that
  describes the functionality.

  CURRENT STATUS: An empty gray tooltip box appears. No text is visible. 
  IF text is in the box it is the same color like the background - but this is just a guess.

  WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT: Without this feature it is harder to
  find/identify functions. Because of the empty tooltip overlays it is
  further an obvious bug - and not a missing feature.

  OS: Kubuntu 16.10, (The KDE color settings seem to have no effect on inkscape).
  Inkscape: 0.91

  Reinstalling of the Software did not change the problem for me.
