Hi zezamoral,

Thanks for this report, and sorry for the slow response.

I don't personally use gnome, but I've just tried this in XFCE4 with a
dark theme and the latest Spyder version in testing (5.4.4+ds-1), and
the saving file window was dark.  Would you be able to try this again
with the new version of Spyder and let me know if the broken behaviour
still happens?

Best wishes,

   Julian

Hi Julian,

any way of doing this from the stable release ? I've installed from
testing some very, very minimal/specific packages before, but looks
like this is going to update some other packages on stable release. Any
possible arrive to backports repository in the near future ?

Thank you for time
Regards.

Hi Sergio,

As you say, spyder has a lot of dependencies, and I don't know exactly
which ones would need backporting to get a working spyder in
backports, and how many of these backports might break other things in
other packages along the way.  I don't have the capacity to take on
this level of responsibility for backports, so I do not intend to
backport spyder.

If someone else would like to take on this task, though, they are more
than welcome to do so!

(If this bug is really annoying you, you can always run the PyPI
version of spyder in a virtual environment.)

Best wishes,

   Julian
