vbox 5.2.8 Manager has corrupted fonts and coloring

[ChrisE]

After update from 5.1.34 to 5.2.8 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, the fonts and coloring of the text in the Manager are distorted and incorrectly colored. This is a regression and I had previously seen when moving from 5.1.2 to 5.1.4 and reported in ticket #16130.

I am simply doing an update of the VirtualBox package on the Ubuntu system using "apt install virtualbox-5.2". I have the repo,

​http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian

in my apt sources list.

The host is running fully updated Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Duplicate of #16130.

I don't get it, you were the one that you opened #16130, why didn't you continue in that ticket and you opened a duplicate one?
