Manual partitioning not possible with ubiquity 2.7.15

[Erick Brunzell]

I've been following up on a few ubiquity bugs and I noticed the FFE bug 825274 so I decided to perform some tests. As mentioned there you've made some really great progress but I notice one serious regression.

If you choose the "something else" option it's really impossible to progress beyond that. If you select a "free-space" or an existing partition it's not possible to "change" it (see the screenshot at post #10 in bug 825274).

To reproduce just try the "use as" option after clicking on change. Or if using free space and clicking on add you'll also find "use as" borked.

I hope I did this half way right, I'm super tired.

Possibly dupe of Bug #831431

Closer investigation reveals that the text is simply not legible in either the "use as" or "mount point" drop-down dialogs until the text is "moused-over". Once you hover the mouse pointer over each line of text the otherwise black background becomes orange one line at a time making it possible to read and select the desired options.

Otherwise the grey text on a black background is simply not legible at all.
