I set the color, but the actual color that gets set is #0B0B0B. And the #0C0C0C color appears as a separate background color on all areas of whitespace and text: https://0x0.st/sD9G.png - You may have to zoom in a considerable amount to see what I'm talking about. And this issue does not happen with other colors it would seem: https://0x0.st/sD9k.png - Only with colors that are slightly brighter than black. Even with a fresh emacs session, ``emacs -Q'' does not alleviate the issue https://0x0.st/sDO1.png There is no face causing this as no other face contains #0C0C0C or #0B0B0B, I made a search through every single face. Is this a bug? I'd like to have #0C0C0C as my background color without this other shade of black appearing as well, it's a bit distracting though ignorable if I don't think about it.
