Ubuntu 22.04 Lts Yaru Theme Replaces Aubergine Accent Color Purple With Orange (Like, Everywhere)
22In This Video We Are Discussing About Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is going to be very orange. For the upcoming Ubuntu 22.04 release, the Yaru developers are removing the aubergine (eggplant) color from the default Ubuntu theme, replacing it with orange, since libadwaita will only allow Ubuntu to use one accent color.

The work for this has already started, with orange now being used throughout the Yaru GTK and GNOME Shell theme for every element that was previously aubergine - sliders, switches, checkboxes, etc. What's more, the orange from the window close button was also removed, I assume also due to libadwaita.
This is how Yaru GTK light and dark themes look right now (from Git), after replacing aubergine with orange:
Previously (this is the theme used in Ubuntu 21.10), with both aubergine and orange accent colors, the theme looked like this - also notice the close button differences:
Some icons have also been recolored to use orange instead of aubergine, like the GNOME Tweaks (you can see the new Tweaks icon in the screenshot at the top of the article, on the left dock) and speaker icons.
For now, the folder icons continue to use aubergine, and they might stay like this in the future. The same goes for the desktop wallpaper. As for the login screen background, I couldn't find any information about it.

I didn’t want to write about this change quite so soon as a) it’s not finished or final and b) the code hasn’t landed in Ubuntu 22.04 daily builds yet. However, people have noticed and I don’t want to look like I’m behind
So, you may remember that last cycle Ubuntu’s community-based design team were instructed to remove purple (aka aubergine) from the Yaru GTK theme (as it is being dropped from the Ubuntu colour palette). While the great ‘de-purpling’ task didn’t end up happening in time for Indri it does appear to be happening for Jammy.
This means aubergine is being replaced with orange throughout the Yaru GTK theme and the companion icon set.
Here’s how things look in the latest development build of the Yaru GTK theme, taken by contributor
Frederik Feichtmeier:
Doesn’t look as big of a change as it sounds, does it?
What about here?
it’s pretty orange but more than bearable. I can learn to love it.
And now here:
If you’re not a big fan of orange — judging by the reaction to our now-reversed site change, you aren’t — you might find Jammy a bit extreme on the ol’ visual front.
One motivator for switching aubergine accents to orange is the introduction libadwaita. I won’t dive into the controversy of what libadwaita is or isn’t, whether it’s good or bad, etc — there’s a lot of misunderstanding around it. That said, it’s arrival will, at face value, limit Ubuntu to a single accent colour rather than several, as at present.
And that accent colour will be orange.
Aubergine accents in the Yaru GTK theme, Yaru GNOME Shell theme, GDM theme, and even in Yaru icons succumb to orange onslaught:
Somewhat bittersweet: the ‘close’ button in window controls? Well that’s switching from orange to grey.
Could this change be reversed or reverted before April 2022? Absolutely! So if you’re not a fan you don’t need to grab a pitchfork — at least not just yet.
And even if it’s not reversed, remember: themes can be changed. You’re not stuck with this look. Ubuntu comes with regular Adwaita GTK theme (which looks far less gaudy), which is very easy to enable.
