Trying it on FC1 - The first thing I noticed is - the 'blue' color
used by 'ls --color=auto' for 'dir' listings is different (a bit
lighter shade. Not sure if this is a bug - but don't mind this new
color.
I still have the old xterms running - so I could compare..
Yep, that's one of the changes. Upstream xterm's colors are
slightly different from what Red Hat has shipped. I think they
used to be very ugly or something, so we added customizations to
make it prettier, then xterm cleaned itself up over time to look
nicer, but with slightly different shade of blue. That's not
fact, just personal hypothesis. ;o)
