Bug Description

Binary package hint: calibre

i'm using GTK theme EasyListening-Pale, which have never gave me any problems. with any kind of program.

with calibre, all the labels text is white. impossible to read. including column headers.

calibre --version reports 0.7.18
apt-cache shows me version: 0.7.18+dfsg-1

work around: use Radiance control theme.

I have a similar problem maybe related...

Using calibre 0.8.6 on a 11.04 with classic interface I am using a theme for Ubuntu derived from radiance ( basically radiance with different Icon Set)

The thing is that I get a black background with white letters and changing theme on ubuntu does not change anything in calibre, it does on other apps.
