Move from fujimo-t/gnome-shell-extension-e-ink-mode#4.

I confirmed it on Ubuntu 21.10.

I won't fix it.

The dock is styled by CSS classes for Dash to Dock.
gnome-shell-theme-e-ink targets to GNOME Shell only and not to specific extensions.

Ubuntu's Ubuntu Dock extension is fork of Dash to Dock and original Dash to Dock supports a function to adapt it's looks to current GNOME Shell theme.
@Bushstar You can disable Ubuntu Dock and install Dash to Dock to change color of the dock background.

Thanks for the info, will follow your advice when I upgrade Ubuntu. I ended up moving back to 20.04.

On a laptop running Ubuntu 21.10 to get the old Dock back I did the following.

Disable existing Dock.
gnome-extensions disable ubuntu-dock@ubuntu.com

Install Gnome Dash to Dock
https://micheleg.github.io/dash-to-dock/index.html

Enable Gnome Dash to Dock
gnome-extensions enable dash-to-dock@micxgx.gmail.com

Configure Gnome Dash to Dock
gnome-shell-extension-prefs dash-to-dock@micxgx.gmail.com

For Ubuntu behaviour use the following options.

Position on screen Left
Intelligent autohide Disabled
Panel mode Ticked
