As it was described in bug #304567 , the missing file rgb.txt show a medium
bug importance.
It is not a simple whishlist ! As shown in bug #331375 , it affects several
application that are not obsolete like netpbm, xcolors and more.
Would it be possible to pass the bug as medium importance and
Missing rgb.txt also affects xcolors (Bug #304567) and netpbm

This doesn't seem fixed, I'm still missing rgb.txt as of the latest
Jaunty alpha 6.
http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/i386/x11-common/filelist doesn't show
the rgb.txt (1:7.4~5ubuntu15).
rgb.txt is such an annoying file, I've had problem with it in just about
every distro, its such a simple but
To clarify, the above statement is true when running a VNC server
started with vnc4viewer, the fluxbox window manager, then trying to
start Emacs. But, Emacs does start in a normal Gnome session (not using
VNC).

non-existent rgb.txt file and broken link to it
On Intrepid (8.10) I've been using vnc4server and asked for a gnome-
session in the xstartup file. Gnome didn't start. I then tried
startfluxbox (a different window manager) and that one worked, but I
couldn't start emacs due to rgb.txt missing. I now added rgb.txt as
described above and
I couldn't reproduce the link between adding rgb.txt to /etc/X11/ and
gnome-session starting when it didn't start before on a second machine
(see above post). I did confirm that emacs doesn't start unless rgb.txt
is present in /etc/X11/.

I fixed this easily enough by copying the file, but since I administer
something like 20 machines, it's a pain to have to make sure all my
machines have an rgb.txt.
I just have one additional question (please don't read this as being a negative
tone):
I don't understand why this can't simply be

xorg (1:7.4~5ubuntu11) jaunty; urgency=low
[ Bryce Harrington ]
* apport/source_xorg.py:
- Adding system environment items recommended at
http://intellinuxgraphics.org/how_to_report_bug.html
- Add lshal
I don't understand... how does this fix the bug?
* x11-common.links: Don't install the symlink to rgb.txt (LP: #300935)
If applications such as VNC are depending on rgb.txt being present in
the system, simply removing the broken symlink does not fix the problem.
Right?

non-existent rgb.txt
this could be two different bugs, but the bug that rgb.txt does not
exist is still a bug. There are applications that don't work without an
rgb.txt.

That file has no meaning with xserver 1.5, it's obsolete. Use a better
vnc server, vnc4server is obsolete in itself since no one maintains it
and it doesn't build anymore.

I'm not going to get into a fixed / unfixed launchpad war, but this
doesn't just affect vncserver - many legacy programs use this file for
translating colors. For example the stage program (universe package
stage) uses the /etc/X11/rgb.txt.

I agree. The one that affects me is NX Free Edition from NoMachine. It
still uses rgb.txt (although they've told me that this was going to
change with 4.0. I'm not sure if FreeNX uses it.

Thank you.
I think I need to take some holliday, because I haven't seen the link yesterday

If the missing file causes severe bugs, you can download a version of rgb.txt
file here : http://cvsweb.xfree86.org/cvsweb/xc/programs/rgb/rgb.txt
the direct link to the latest version is this one :
Thank you for confirming the bug.
After a new search on the web, I could find two other bug-reports, on the
ubuntu launchpad, with the same description :

I can reproduce this bug on Ubuntu 8.10 x86_32.
According to 'apt-file search rgb.txt' no package provides
/etc/X11/rgb.txt. There are a few other files named rgb.txt but none
seems to be the one we need here.
I'm going to mark the bug as confirmed and let the developers handle it
from here.
I have looked at the package and it contains the file in /usr/share/X11/. Maybe
try this command?
sudo apt-get install --reinstall x11-common

As you say, I try to reinstall the package.
But as expected, only the link is replaced and no regular file is created.
