Certain applications show incorrect colours.

[Davin]

Expected Behavior

The Yaru Dark themes should always match the colours that are displayed on all the GTK applications.

Actual Behavior

Applications such as gnome-software display mis-matched colours in its UI, when using any of the Yaru Dark themes. As such, the boxes that display the names of the applications in gnome-software, will show both the text and the textbox all white, making it almost impossible to read what it's saying.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. Open Settings.
2. Select Appearance.
3. Under Style, select Dark theme.
4. Download gnome-software with sudo apt install gnome-software. GNOME Software isn't installed by default, only Snap Store (themed as 'Ubuntu Software') is installed by default
5. Open gnome-software

Screenshots

This is what happens when GNOME Software is opened using any of the Yaru Dark themes:

Upstream check

Also occurs with the Adwaita-dark theme as well! This doesn't occur on other Linux distributions or GNOME OS though, so it must be an overall GNOME Theming issue on Ubuntu, not the GNOME Shell itself.

Okay, turns out it was just my profile configuration was from an even older version of Ubuntu. After creating a new user account and checking which files are created, I moved the files in the Home directory into a backup folder. And the issue was resolved!
