vnc4server needs rgb.txt

Binary package hint: vnc4server

I just installed 8.10 from CD and updated all the packages, and ran vnc4server.
It starts, but the every application complains about not being able to find any colors -- not
"black" or "white" or "blue" or .. anything. (Try "xterm -bg blue" or "xsertoot -solid black".)

I could start things in color by specifying the color by, say, rgb values: "xterm -bg rgbi:.1/.1/.3"

The only rgb.txt I have (well, had) is /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt, which seem to be installed by x11-common,
but that's just a link to /etc/X11/rgb.txt, which doesn't exist.

I copied in a version of rgb.txt from another OS into /etc/X11/rgb.txt, and the problem went away.
