Thus to workaround this "bug" in the corresponding startup script on the machine (by setting to a wrong but at least recognized TERM) is probably the best which can be done. |
I was under impression that for host to know about TERM=rxvt-unicode256 it should have rxvt-unicode installed.

What does echo $COLORFGBG output? If it outputs nothing, it is presumably unset in some of your startup scripts - this should be avoided. |
| Code: | % echo $COLORFGBG
15;default;0 |

No: TERM only tells the application which escape sequences can be used and what they mean.

Now I see: WIth XPM support, COLORFGBG has a different syntax which is currently not interpreted correctly by eix. As a workaround you can set
| Code: | | COLORFGBG_DARK=';0?[02-689]$ ;1[0-46]$ ;[a-km-vxz][a-z]*$' |
I guess this will be default in >=eix-0.27.7 |

I know, but I distinctly remember ssh'ing to a up-to-date Gentoo system (but without urxvt) and failng because of $TERM. Fixed by installing rxvt-unicode. But maybe I made a mistake or misrecalled something.

I think I'll stick with setting BG1=none for the time being. Good that it would be fixed, though, thanks! |

Solarized users should be aware of an important change in app-portage/eix-0.28.4:
Please just set (or export from the shell) SOLARIZED=true (or light or dark). This will give you a special color scheme for solarized in 16 and 256 color terminals.
The previous recommendations to set TERM_ALT[0-3] or COLORSCHEME[0-3] for solarized users are obsolete!
If you have set these variable previously in your /etc/eixrc (or exported them), please remove them again! (It produces now suboptimal results.) |

I didn't have large issues with my colors, but googled gentoo and solariezed and ended up here.
How awesome it was to find that if I upgrade I can just set SOLARIZED=true and eix will "just work".
Really really nice, thanks.  |
