Bug#745412: evince-gtk: selected text is a solid black box, renders text unreadable

[Tim Wiederhake]

A-Ha!

The problem seems to be connected to the Raleigh theme (xfce default?),
as with Adwaita text selection is indeed white on blue ground. Funny
that this problem only occurs with evince, text selection in any other
program (qt5 / gtk) works fine.

Regards,
Tim
