Ok, after restarting the X server (i.e., killing my long-running vnc
session) the rgb.txt in /etc/X11/rgb.txt was accepted.
Still, I think the current state is unacceptable. I'd be happy to help
in finding a better solution.

Great ... I downloaded rgb.txt (and some variations) and put it in
/etc/X11/rgb.txt, /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt, and /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt. No
luck so far.
This works around the bug for showrgb etc., but tk apps still do not see
the colors. Investigating further ...

And if we must play the priority game, this should probably be rated
"High" as it satisfies the following part of the definition.
* Has a moderate impact on a large portion of Ubuntu users (estimated)

Another application that is affected is git. "git gui" will not start at
all on a fresh Jaunty install.
Come on people, this is clearly something that needs to be fixed. I will
download rgb.txt now to continue with my work, but this has eaten 20
minutes of my time. Scale this to millions of Ubuntu
