Bug#1063686: installation-reports: GUI checkbox in high contrast dark mode isn't high contrast
Package: installation-reports
Severity: wishlist
Either normal/a11y or wishlist depending how you wanna call it.
I normally use the slang version of the Debian installer. Because I'm
using a 14" 1080p portable monitor here, I decided to use the GUI. In
dark mode because albino. Bright = pain. Sub-optimal install for me,
will switch to ssh as soon as the network's configured.
Went to select installer components because parted pls, but when I
selected it, I didn't see that it was selected at first. That's odd.
Then I looked closer and … oh yeah, I guess it is selected. Just this
theme/widget set uses a very small/thin checkmark inside the box.
Basically, I'd like a checkbox whose checked/unchecked states are more
visually not the same. Particularly important in the dark mode, since
that's intended to be high contrast for accessibility reasons. (Which is
why I was using it…)
Suggest a bigger/bolder checkmark might be the path of least resistance
for a fix.
