Subject: `diff-mode' shows no colors
Date: Sun, 04 Nov 2012 03:20:43 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87a9uyun0k.fsf@fimbulvetr.bsc.es> (raw)

I'm using emacs 24.2.1 (debian's unstable emacs24 package) and observed that the
faces in `diff-mode', which should show some nice colors, are instead all shown
in grayscale.

After looking at the definition of some of these faces, it looks like the
`(min-colors 88)' condition is applying, leaving all of diff-mode in shades of
grey (the ones applying for dark background). Even starting with -q or -Q is not
enough to get diffs with color (which I had for some time).

Is there any way I can debug why exactly is this happening?


Thanks,
  Lluis
