I use a colour scheme called solarized. Since I updated my Debian system a couple of weeks ago, colours are all wrong when I run emacs on Xfce-terminal

Unsetting the COLORTERM environment variable appears to fix the issue.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

COLORTERM is set to truecolor, while TERM is set to xterm-256color.

EDIT: It appears that the 16 ANSI colours inside Emacs do not match the colours from the terminal palette. For example, "red" is shown as #cd0000 inside Emacs, whereas in the terminal palette it's defined as #df322f

  • Does this answer your question? #000000 and true black in terminal Emacs colors

  • Sounds like an issue with the color settings for Xfce-terminal, see the linked question for a similar problem

  • It doesn't solve the problem. I've added more info.
