Public bug reported:

When I try to set a solid color as desktop background with background
fading disabled, all I get is a black background, no matter what color I
choose in the control center/System Settings. The same works fine if I
either enable background fading or use a  vertical or horizontal 'color-
shading-type'.

TEST CASE:
1. Press <Super>, type 'Appearance', and open the result.
2. Make sure you have a background image selected.
3. Disable background fading from the command line:

    gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.desktop background-fade false

4. In the 'Appearance' dialog, try to set a solid color other than
black.

RESULT:
* No matter what color is set, the background will always stay black.

To go back to the working case, run the following from the command line:

    gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.desktop background-fade true
