/etc/X11/rgb.txt is a real file not a symlink. /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt
is the symlink.

ls -la /etc/X11/rgb.txt
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 17371 2006-01-14 17:27 /etc/X11/rgb.txt

ls -la /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2006-06-03 07:21 /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt -> 
/etc/X11/rgb.txt

In this situation;

emacs
Undefined color: "black"

Not working
