Bug Description
When I start gitk on Ubuntu 12.04 32 bit, I get this standard error on console:
Error in startup script: unknown color name "rgba:0000/
(database entry for "-foreground" in widget ".___tk_
invoked from within
"$q .___tk_
(procedure "tk_setPalette" line 82)
invoked from within
"tk_setPalette background $c selectColor $selc"
(procedure "setui" line 8)
invoked from within
"setui $uicolor"
(file "/usr/bin/gitk" line 11529)
I have no idea why this happen and how to resolve this problem.

This problem was solved a few minutes ago.
I followed this bug report on Red Hat Bugzilla:
https:/
should do "clearing out the X resources":
1) xrdb -load /dev/null (xrdb is X server resource database utility
from manpage)
2) xrdb -query
3) wish (wish is a Tk simple windowing shell application from manpage,
probably invoked for testing purpose only here)
4) I should uncheck KDE System Settings -> Application Appearance ->
Colors -> Options -> "Apply colors to non-KDE4 applications". Yes I
use KDE, and I have not mentioned it before. I am sorry. In KDE 4.10 of mine, I don't need to relogin.
Now gitk runs well again.
