This is a fresh install of Ubuntu Jaunty. I've also reproduced this on
a freshly install virtual machine (Ubuntu Jaunty as well) and the live
CD. On all of them gcolor2's preset color list is empty and rgb.txt is
nowhere to be found. I found /etc/X11/rgb.txt on one of my other
systems that has been upgraded numerous times, most likely left over
from a previous release. Oddly on that system dpkg -S reports that it
is in the x11-common package yet it's clearly not in there as I
checked the file list myself.
