[ambiance] cpufreq applet has dark text on dark panel

Still happening in 0.1.5.3

Confirmed, the text color does change

Sorry, the text color does not change, my bad, It also affects the human theme when the menu is set to a dark color.

I've tried with the DarkRoom theme (included in the package human-theme) wich has a dark background color panel and text color is displayed correctly.

Fix ported in my branch from lp:dusttheme.

@ James:

In your Branch Rev.39 the text in the active-tasklist in Ambiance is white, too. Maybe this bug was fixed, but another was opened!
Take a look.

This bug returned in maverick. Do I need to open a new bug or is there something I should update on this bug?

Since this bug is easily reproduced I am setting as triaged. Also I am removing the assigned to status of James Schriver since he assigned himself 7 months ago.

Here is a screenshot of the issue on a fresh maverick install, just added two cpu-freq montiors to the panel on top, notice that you can not read the text.

Please see lp:#640096, where a patch is proposed for the regression of this bug.

Thanks John, also a helpful hint: if you write bug 640096 launchpad automatically makes it a link.

I am going ahead and marking this as a duplicate of bug 640096 since it has the patch and a request for merging already even though this was the original bug report.
