Bug Description

For greybird, GTK2 applications use a blue color for links, whereas GTK3 links are Ubuntu orange.

To compare, open Thunar (GTK2) and go to Help > About. Link to project page is blue.
Open File Roller and go to Help > About. Link to project page is orange.

Should GTK3 use blue as the link color as well?

This is a known problem and if you look at Ambiance it has the same bug.
For some reason the link_color (which is set to the same blue in gtk3 as in gtk2) doesn't get applied, I'm assuming this is gtk3's fault.

---------------
shimmer-themes (1.2.1-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  * Updated greybird to the v0.6 tag:
    - fix gtk3 link color. lp: #948123
    - fix a few issues with gtk2 resize grips.
    - split lightdm-gtk-greeter's theming into its own theme to allow for
      more fine-tuning without impacting the desktop theme.
  * debian/shimmer-themes.install: add lightdm folder.
  * debian/shimmer-themes.links: add a symlink for Greybird-lightdm.
