Bug#428728: x11-common: placing "DebianRed" in /etc/X11/rgb.txt is inane

[giacomo boffi <boffi@stru.polimi.it>]

Package: x11-common
Version: 1:7.2-5
Severity: normal
Tags: patch


placing "DebianRed" in /etc/X11/rgb.txt is inane, because X does not
honor the data in that file, but only takes into account the builtin
color-names table

to be able to define new color names, you should either

   change the builtin table

or

  define USE_RGB_BUILTIN to 0 during the build (see os/oscolor.c)
