Maybe I just don't know enough about ubuntu yet, but if the fix is released, then why is it not showing up in the software updater? I tried searching for the fix that was listed in post # 18 "This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-themes - 13.04+14.04.20131211-0ubuntu1", and that led me to here: "https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-themes/13.04+14.04.20131211-0ubuntu1", where I could download this: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/ubuntu-themes_13.04%2B14.04.20131211.orig.tar.gz Downloaded, extracted, and tried running the "Makefile", which only returned a blue million errors: ./Makefile: line 1: THEME: command not found ./Makefile: line 2: SIZES: command not found ./Makefile: line 3: ICONS: command not found ./Makefile: line 6: PADLOCK: command not found ./Makefile: line 7: THEME: command not found ./Makefile: line 7: SIZES: command not found ./Makefile: line 7: ICONS: command not found ./Makefile: line 7: foreach: command not found ./Makefile: line 7: foreach: command not found ./Makefile: line 7: foreach: command not found ./Makefile: line 7: FILES: command not found ./Makefile: line 9: FILES: command not found ./Makefile: line 9: all:: command not found ./Makefile: line 11: fg: no job control ./Makefile: line 12: PADLOCK: command not found Traceback (most recent call last): File "./scavenge.py", line 53, in <module> main() File "./scavenge.py", line 33, in main base = xml.dom.minidom.parse(args[0]) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/dom/minidom.py", line 1921, in parse return expatbuilder.parse(file) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/dom/expatbuilder.py", line 922, in parse fp = open(file, 'rb') IOError: [Errno 21] Is a directory: 'Ambiance' ./Makefile: line 14: clean:: command not found ./Makefile: line 15: FILES: command not found ./Makefile: line 15: -rm: command not found ./Makefile: line 17: .PHONY:: command not found snurfle@snurfle:~/Desktop/ubuntu-themes-13.04+14.04.20131211$ py Makefile py: command not found snurfle@snurfle:~/Desktop/ubuntu-themes-13.04+14.04.20131211$ ./ambiancetoradiance.sh mv: cannot stat ‘*/*/*.svg’: No such file or directory ./ambiancetoradiance.sh: line 7: */*/*.svg: No such file or directory file */*/*.svg processed rm: cannot remove ‘*/*/*.svg.bak’: No such file or directory mv: cannot stat ‘*/*/*.svg’: No such file or directory ./ambiancetoradiance.sh: line 14: */*/*.svg: No such file or directory file */*/*.svg processed rm: cannot remove ‘*/*/*.svg.bak’: No such file or directory snurfle@snurfle:~/Desktop/ubuntu-themes-13.04+14.04.20131211$ sudo ./Makefile[sudo] password for snurfle: ./Makefile: 1: ./Makefile: THEME: not found ./Makefile: 2: ./Makefile: SIZES: not found ./Makefile: 3: ./Makefile: ICONS: not found ./Makefile: 6: ./Makefile: PADLOCK: not found ./Makefile: 7: ./Makefile: THEME: not found ./Makefile: 7: ./Makefile: SIZES: not found ./Makefile: 7: ./Makefile: ICONS: not found ./Makefile: 7: ./Makefile: foreach: not found ./Makefile: 7: ./Makefile: foreach: not found ./Makefile: 7: ./Makefile: foreach: not found ./Makefile: 7: ./Makefile: FILES: not found ./Makefile: 9: ./Makefile: FILES: not found ./Makefile: 9: ./Makefile: all:: not found ./Makefile: 11: ./Makefile: %-secure.svg:: not found ./Makefile: 12: ./Makefile: PADLOCK: not found Traceback (most recent call last): File "./scavenge.py", line 53, in <module> main() File "./scavenge.py", line 33, in main base = xml.dom.minidom.parse(args[0]) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/dom/minidom.py", line 1921, in parse return expatbuilder.parse(file) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/dom/expatbuilder.py", line 922, in parse fp = open(file, 'rb') IOError: [Errno 21] Is a directory: 'Ambiance' ./Makefile: 14: ./Makefile: clean:: not found ./Makefile: 15: ./Makefile: FILES: not found ./Makefile: 15: ./Makefile: -rm: not found ./Makefile: 17: ./Makefile: .PHONY:: not found

If this is fixed, then how do I fix it? If the fix has bugs in it too, then when will those bugs be fixed? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-system-log in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1045602 Title: date and time in gnome-system-log is white text on white background Status in “gnome-system-log” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “ubuntu-themes” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: The datetimes in syslog, kernlog, and auth.log (ie that appear to the left of the log text) are normally invisible. They are there - selecting them makes them appear as white text on orange background - but the problem is that they are normally being drawn as white text on white background. The same problem doesn't exhibit in the Xorg.0.log, possibly because that isn't translated to date and time.
