Bug Description

I have a couple of font issues with gitg (version: 3.23.0-1) in Zesty:

- commit description text is white (which is unreadable on light gray background in the default Ubuntu theme)
- diffs are not in monospaced font anymore

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Could you please report the information about the theme you are using? Also an image of the issue would be helpful. Thanks!

Hi. Since you're already monospace issue reported in #1700218, I will concentrate on the white commit description text.

It is broken using both Ambiance and Radiance, see screenshot. The title of the commit text looks okay, but the description text is unreadable (note that not all commits have a description).

Actually I cannot reproduce this problem with

dpkg -l | grep light-themes
ii light-themes 16.10+17.10.20170518-0ubuntu1 all Light Themes (Ambiance and Radiance)

could you report the light-theme version on your machine?

I confirm that installing light-themes_16.10+17.10.20170817-0ubuntu1_all from Artful fixed the white-on-white issue (the monospace issue described also in #1700218 still remains).
