[Bug 371287] [NEW] Selecting ""Named colours" fails to find rgb.txt

[jtappin]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kcolorchooser

I'm not sure whether this should really be considered a problem with
kcolorchooser or with xorg.

When the KDE colour selector is asked to use "Named colours", it fails
to find the list of named colours. The error window says:

Unable to read X11 RGB colour strings. The following file location(s) were examined:
/usr/share/X11/rgb.txt
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt
/usr/openwin/lib/X11/rgb.txt

I have checked in packages.ubuntu.com and in Jaunty there are no
packages that provide any of the above files.

(Since selecting some of the "40 colours" adds a name I'm assuming that
X has changed how it handles colour naming and the "Named colours" in
kcolorchooser hasn't caught up).
