Changing theme from Ambiance to SuruDark or SuruGradient in MainView's completion causes binding loops.

[Zsombor Egri]

The following code snippet reproduces the error:

import QtQuick 2.0
import Ubuntu.Components 0.1

MainView {
    width: units.gu(40)
    height: units.gu(71)

    Component.onCompleted: Theme.name = "Ubuntu.Components.Themes.SuruDark"
}

[Zsombor Egri (zsombi)]

As workaround set the backgroundColor of Mainview to SuruDark color ("#221E1C")

[Florian Boucault (fboucault)]

Please don't use that color value but instead the midAubergine from the colors constants:

[Renato Araujo Oliveira Filho (renatofilho)]

Please don't use that color value but instead the midAubergine from the colors constants.

Using this color causes the application to became purple.
I tried all colors on the colors constants and none of then works.
A greo on SDK code did not show any constant used for this color value "221E1C"

[Florian Boucault (fboucault)]

Fair enough, we can hardcode the "221E1C" then. I don't remember why I thought midAubergine would do the trick.

This bug was fixed in the package address-book-app - 0.2+14.04.20140318.3-0ubuntu1

---------------
address-book-app (0.2+14.04.20140318.3-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=low

  [ Ubuntu daily release ]
  * New rebuild forced

  [ Richard Huddie ]
  * A new emulator method go_to_add_contact() to launch the add contact
    screen, and a new test to validate its use.

  [ Renato Araujo Oliveira Filho ]
  * Refactory contact list. To switch between the favorite list and all
    contacts list you will use the header.
  * Refactory contact favorite selection. In this new version you
    favorite the contact instead of phone number.
  * Avoid change the "Theme.name" during the component complete, this
    was causing a lot of properties binding loops. (LP: #1277647)

Messaging shouldn't actually use SuruGradient, see bug 1324484.

  * This is needed by unity8 for the "shell rotation" feature (ie
    shell does all the rotation work instead of apps rotating
    themselves). unity8's dialogs (like the power dialog when you
    long press the power button) should follow its parent item
    rotation and size, as one would expect, and not be sneakily
    reparented to the scene root item, in which case the shell
    UI would be rotated but its dialog would not.
    Related bug LP: #1394511. Fixes: LP: #1394511.
