The ubuntu-themes source replaced light-themes after precise. The light-themes source only exists in precise.

The bug as described is not a theme issue, AFAICS. The window borders are meant to look like that.

Are you really complaining about the lack of shadows? That *is* a bug.

As far as I can see that particular issue only happens for csd windows. For example, gnome-terminal looks fine.

I was initially content with the terse description "no window border" because I thought there was only this one bug covering the shadows and titlebar corner issues. But it turns out a second bug 1685271 exists for the latter. So yes, this bug now needs a better description...
