[Evolution] Black areas in space with email headers using Evolve Gnome theme

[Per <pmknutsen gmail com>]

Hi,

After a recent upgrade to Ubuntu 14.04 w/Gnome 3.10 and Evolution 3.10.4 I find that an old bug has resurfaced when using a custom GTK+ theme (the Evolve theme in my case).

The old bug report is here:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=671437

I have reported the bug to the maintainer of the Evolve theme and posted some screenshots here:

https://github.com/satya164/Evolve/issues/9

Disabling the overlay scrollbars in Ubuntu removed black areas in other apps (e.g. gedit) when using the Evolve theme, as well as around the Mail/Contacts/etc buttons in Evolve, but black areas in the space with mail headers in Evolution persist.

I do not experience this bug with any of the default themes that comes with Ubuntu/Gnome, just Evolve, so I'm not sure whether this is an Evolution or Evolve issue (no pun intended...).

The fact the bug was addressed by the Evolution developers in the past suggests perhaps there is a regression in Evolution, as all the fixes made seem to refer to older versions of Evolution than I use.

Thanks,

Per
