[mantic] gnome-shell fails to follow accent colours

[Erich Eickmeyer]

Impact
------
When accent colors are selected in gnome-control-center, gnome-shell fails to follow with the exception of blue and orange. Screenshots attached.

Test Case
---------
1. Open the Settings app
2. Switch to the Appearance page
3. Choose the Purple color
4. Click the quick settings area in the far right side of GNOME Shell's top bar
5. The highlights should be purple

What Happens Instead
--------------------
The highlights are still orange

Regression Potential
--------------------
Themes for default accent color or for high-contrast theme are not generated properly.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Aptivi (eofla)]

For me, it doesn't only affect the quick settings highlights like the ones seen in the screenshots, but it also affects the calendar highlight color from the notifications panel and the open app indicator in the sidebar of the desktop.

Hi Aptivi, the screenshot was just an example, I'm seeing the same.

Seems to be solved now?

[Aptivi (eofla)]

@eeickmeyer I know that it's just an example. I hope that it gets fixed before 23.10 release.

[Erich Eickmeyer (eeickmeyer)]

Francois, sadly it's not solved. I just checked and there was no update pushed to gnome-shell that resolves this. The accent colors change in the windows, but not in gnome-shell itself (see screenshot).

This bug was fixed in the package yaru-theme - 23.10.0-0ubuntu2
