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

2007-06-13 Thread giacomo boffi
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)

Well, all of this is already explained in your bug #389864, so I am
closing this one. There is nothing wrong in x11-common. Only
xserver-xorg-core could be considered wrong (that's what #389864 does).
