Dear Maintainer,


   * What led up to the situation?

     upgrade of libgtk-3-0 from 3.12.2-3+b1  to  3.14.1-1 makes my preferred browser (xombrero) unusable

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?

     I tried 13 different web-browsers, but only xombrero depends on libgtk-3-0 and shows the following symptoms:
     address bar, search bar and status bar are unreadable. I suspect that the font is there, but is displayed white on white.
     additionally if xombrero asks for a password, the fields for user and password show the same effect.

     in the configuration of xombrero itself I found no option to set the foreground/background color

   * What was the outcome of this action?

     you have to type blindly, which is a little bit error prone :-)
