Public bug reported:

The Ubuntu xfce4-settings package contains a patch - xubuntu_vanilla-
session-themes.patch - that changes the default theme to Greybird. In
trusty, at least, this theme is in the shimmer-themes package, which is
not a dependency of xfc4-settings. This leads to various color-related
problems, such as bug #980710.

To reproduce, install the xfce4 package on Ubuntu 14.04, then log in
with an xfce session. Launch gnome-terminal (Applications Menu ->
Terminal Enulator) and you'll have black text on a black background.
Then, log out, install shimmer-themes, and log back in - now gnome-
terminal is a more usable black text on white background by default.

Please add shimmer-themes as a dependency of xfce4-settings to resolve
this.

These are the specific versions where I'm experiencing the issue:

Description:    Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Release:        14.04

xfce4-settings:
  Installed: 4.11.2-1ubuntu2

shimmer-themes:
  Installed: 1.7.3-0ubuntu1

** Affects: xfce4-settings (Ubuntu)
