Bug Description
While preparing the Ubuntu GNOME remix image, I noticed that the installer is barely usable with Adwaita.
1. Install gnome-themes-
2. Open System Settings>Appearance and set the theme to Adwaita
3. Install ubiquity-
4. Run ubiquity
This also affects the High Contrast theme when running ubiquity from installed Ubuntu; notably selecting High Contrast from a live CD doesn't really change the theme colors as expected but makes the text larger (and it's not possible to get the text back to normal but that's a different bug).
From installed Ubuntu
1. Open System Settings>Appearance and set the theme to HighContrast
2. Install ubiquity-
3. Run ubiquity
4. With HighContrast, it's even worse as there is white on white text and it's not even possible to select the text to see what the text says.
I guess Ubiquity is using custom widgets/theming. Screenshots attached.

The high contrast theme bug is duplicate of bug 744283
We have a custom cairo background / highlight around the tick boxes. There is consensus to remove those.
But in the adwaita theme the buttons look odd, and ubiquity is simply using stock buttons there.
The ubiquity task is duplicate of bug 744283, the Adwaita theme bug is new as far as I know.
I am closing ubiquity task & opening adwaita theme bug.
