*Using the Nix package for libreoffice-qt. also happen with the GTK version*


Happen with the package "libreoffice-qt" at nixpkgs revision "d050e7dfc3af49c97f740319c15dd33de56598a5"

Reading the Nix package, the source come from (from this file : https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-unstable/pkgs/applications/office/libreoffice/src-fresh/primary.nix ) : https://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/src/7.1.5/libreoffice-7.1.5.2.tar.xz

Term roughly translated from the French interface.

- Open a new LibreOffice writer document
- Open the option menu (Tools->Options...)
- Open the interface color menu (LibreOffice->Interface color)
- For the background document color, select black
- Click the validate button
- The document background should be black
- Write text. It should be white
- Insert a formula (Insert->Object->Formula). The formula edit menu should show up.
- Write a formula/about anything (like "1 over 4")
- Escape the formula (by clicking outside of it, or pressing the escape button)
- The formula is now black, and unreadable

Reproducible using LO 7.4 alpha.

The weird thing is that while editing the formula, the font is rendered in white color. However, right after closing it, the font becomes black and unreadable.
