Bug Description

On my fresh install of Intrepid, I began noticing various programs complaining that they didn't understand certain color names. I saw some things that pointed me toward a problem with the rgb.txt file. My system only had one rgb.txt which was in /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt which was a broken symlink to /etc/X11/rgb.txt. Using apt-file, I was able to determine that /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt is provided by x11-common, which installs as the aforementioned symlink. I wasn't able to find a package that provides /etc/X11/rgb.txt.

The bottom line is.. where is /etc/X11/rgb.txt? which package should provide it?
