I ran into this problem myself while trying to figure out why gcolor2 is missing all of its preset colors. While running an strace on it I noticed it's looking for this rgb.txt which doesn't exist.

16:40:24.659307 access("/usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

16:40:24.660114 access("/usr/openwin/lib/X11/rgb.txt", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
16:40:24.660731 open("/home/nick/.rgb.txt", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

Which lead me to this bug report.
