Happens with foreground colors, too. Other colors seem unaffected, but I did not search the entire color space. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xterm-191-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start up mutt (with default colors) in an xterm window 2. 3. Actual Results: Light blue status bar Expected Results: Dark blue status bar Additional info:
Actually that's Dodger Blue, not light blue. (See related Debian bug reports). I'll probably change it to an in-between value in a future patch. (For anyone who's actually inconvenienced by it, the manpage lists resource names and default values).
Thomas: So far, most feedback for this change that I've seen from users is positive. Most people seem to prefer the lighter shade of blue, however some do believe it is a bit too light, so I think your solution of using an in-between shade might be best. Since there are users who likely prefer it one way or another, it is pretty much impossible to get a default that everyone will like 100%, so I would tend to agree with your proposal to choose the in-between shade. I'll leave ours as is and update to xterm-192 when it's avail, then update this report for testing. Thanks
ok. It is a concern that a (supposedly) simple change has been on my list for a couple of months, so I'll probably close this one in #192 (this week).
I committed patch #192 last night, so the next time you update your package this should be closed.
Updating to 192... going to leave this open for now until I update our patch to remove our customization override. Thanks.
Back to normal in xterm-192-1
no. It is still changed (a compromise).
