Public bug reported: I am running gdm and my session is openbox-gnome (not Unity) on Ubuntu 11.10 I installed GnomishDark theme from http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/GnomishDark?content=147290 because I strongly prefer dark background. I used gnome-tweak-tool to set my window and GTK theme to GnomishDark Now Ubuntu Software Center appears with light text and a light foreground.
See the attached screenshot. It appears to take the text foreground color from the GTK theme, but ignored the theme background color.
