Package: epiphany-gecko
Version: 2.20.0-2
Severity: normal
Using the Gecko backend, webpages inherit a default background and
foreground from GTK. However, the anchor and visited anchor colours
(blue and purple by default, respectively) do not!
This means that any GTK theme with a dark background will result in
very hard to read links unless the user understands CSS well enough to
write a user CSS stylesheet by hand(!) to prevent this.
This is most obvious with the HighContrastInverse GTK theme, which
results in blue-on-navyblue text -- very hard to read, even for people
who have normal vision.
I notice that the HighContrastInverse theme sets the following
properties
GtkWidget::link-color = "#FFFFFF"
GtkWidget::visited-link-color = "#FFCCFF"
Epiphany should either use these as the default link colours, or not
use the GTK theme for the default foreground / background colours.
PS: this does not appear to affect epiphany-webkit, which seems to
ignore GTK themes entirely.
