[Bug 899878] [NEW] Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Bruce Pieterse (octoquad):

[Impact]

 * A user is unable to view the text within the software center
application which makes the application almost unusable.

 * Ubuntu GNOME users that are currently using a dark theme with an LTS
release requested that the fix be backported to trusty from wily.

 * This fix applies a custom style sheet for the dark variant of Ubuntu
GNOME Adwaita theme.

[Test Case]

 * In Ubuntu GNOME open Gnome Tweak Tool
 * Enable the Global Dark Theme option under Appearances
 * Launch Software Center
 * You will find that text is translucent which is hard to read on the home page.
 * Click on any package. The package text is the same color as the background.
 * Apply the fix
 * Open software center and all text is now legible.

[Regression Potential]

 * None. This fix was applied in Wily.
 * Fix for trusty was tested with both dark and light themes for both Ubuntu Gnome and Ubuntu Unity.
