[Bug 1725536] Re: Ubuntu 17.10 Dock doesn't respect the color choice of the Gnome Shell theme

[Ubuntu Tinkerer]

Removed selected package as this bug report has nothing to do with it.

** Package changed: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) => ubuntu

** Description changed:

  I performed a fresh install of Ubuntu 17.10 (wiped system partition) but
  kept my home partition and home folder from Ubuntu Unity 17.04. I've so
  far done minimal changes to my system besides from installing some apps.
  
  The Ubuntu 17.10 Dock uses orange dots to indicate what apps are open
  and with how many instances. But changing the Gnome Shell theme doesn't
  change this color even if the theme changes the color orange everywhere
- else in the theme.
+ else in the shell.
  
  Take the highly popular Arc theme for instance
  (https://github.com/horst3180/arc-theme). Installing it will change the
  orange color that appears in the the alt+tab panel and the Gnome
  Overview. But the orange color will remain in the Dock, causing a
  slightly annoying inconsistency.
  
  I think the original Gnome Dash to Dock extension respects the Gnome
  Shell's choice of color (https://micheleg.github.io/dash-to-dock/).
  Maybe it can be seen there from where the extension reads this crucial
  color code and then you can do the same in the Dock?
