I think you can ignore that message. The binary package 'ubuntu-themes' doesn't really exist as it is replaced by 'light-themes'.

That said, the file you said you changed (/usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-2.0/gtkrc) belongs to the light-themes package. Please try:

1. Forcefully reinstalling that package:
   sudo apt-get install --reinstall light-themes
2. Reboot
3. If the bug still isn't solved then take a photo of the problem for us and attach it here.
