Description Edward O 2017-10-15 11:08:28 UTC
Created attachment 1338800 [details]
chromium is buggy but chrome is fine

Description of problem:
Chromium does not display correctly with global gnome dark theme enabled. Chrome does (see screenshot).
I also don't remember having this issue in Fedora 26, so it may be a regression.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
* gnome-shell-3.26.1-1.fc27
* chromium-61.0.3163.100-1.fc27 (updates-testing repo)
* google-chrome-stable-61.0.3163.100-1.x86_64 (google-chrome repo)

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable dark theme in gnome tweaks
2. Open chromium
3. Open any dialog e.g. try to bookmark with Ctrl-D
4. Install chrome from google rpm or repository ( https://www.if-not-true-then-false.com/2010/install-google-chrome-with-yum-on-fedora-red-hat-rhel/ )

Actual results:
2. Chromium is white instead of dark
3. Unreadable dialogs
4. Chrome is fine

Expected results:
2. Chrome

Additional info:
Gnome 3.26 on X11

Comment 1 Edward O 2017-10-15 11:10:17 UTC
To finish:
Expected results:
2. Chromium window decorations are dark
3. Dialogs are readable i.e. light text on dark background

Comment 2 Tomas Popela 2017-10-16 04:53:09 UTC
I think that enabling the gtk3 support would solve the problem here (Chromium will then behave like Chrome).. Tom, can we enable it? I see that you turn the gtk3 support off, when Chromium started to build it by default, but that was over a year ago and official Chrome package is using gtk3 by default and there were a lot of fixes there (regarding to the reasons why it was turned off)
