ef-themes-with-colors throws error

[stevemolitor]

Executing the example code in section "9. Use colors from the active Ef theme":

(ef-themes-with-colors
 (list bg-main fg-main bg-mode-line cursor))

Gives this error:

Symbol’s value as variable is void: ef-light-palette

The error happens here. It seems to have been introduced in this commit: e5e8ada. The ef-light-pallette constant has not been defined yet apparently.

If I select the ef-light-theme first then it works fine (which makes sense).

Thank @stevemolitor! Your assessment is correct. I need to think about an elegant way to do this. Will think about it some more and report back to you.

@protesilaos I can confirm that your diff above fixes the issue.
