I run mutt under gentoo, and recently upgraded a few packages, including mutt to 1.5.22-r1 from 1.5.21-r12. I use the sidebar. Now mutt shows an odd coloration. My color config is pretty simple:
color attachment black white color body black white . color bold black white color error black white color header black white . color hdrdefault black white color index black white . color markers black white color message black white color normal black white color quoted black white color search black white color signature black white color tilde black white color tree black white color underline black white color indicator white black color status white black In others, all black and white, boring as heck. After the update, mutt now shows everything grey and black, except that sidebar dirs which have new or flagged messages, and thus show (4)[3] or something similar, are plain white, just like everything used to be. I verified this by emptying the spam folder and by reading all the nessages in another folder. This behavior is the same whether running under screen or a bare /bin/sh. Is this a known change in 1.5.22? What else could cause this change? I didn't see any 'color' notes in ChangeLog or NEWS. -- ... _._. ._ ._. . _._. ._. ___ .__ ._. . .__. ._ .. ._.
