[Bug 1059767] [NEW] Empathy wrong background color selection in kubuntu

[Oliver Borm]

Public bug reported:

I am using empathy in kubuntu 12.04. When selecting text in empathy,
either in the history or at the input, the text color is switched to
white, but the background color stays also white. So you'll end up with
white text color at white background. The text is marked correctly and
you can copy it. I think empathy does in ~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals
not consider the

[Colors:Selection]
BackgroundNormal=67,172,232

but stays with

[Colors:View]
BackgroundNormal=255,255,255

As a "workaround" you can change

[Colors:View]
BackgroundNormal

to something different than white, but then your complete desktop is
changing ...
