Package: bash
Version: 4.2+dfsg-0.1+deb7u3
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Often I ssh into my debian box from machines that have the environment variable 
$TERM set to xterm-256color.

the .bashrc in /etc/skel does not test for this, only for xterm-color leading 
to a black and white prompt.

Please consider changing line 40 of the .bashrc to be something like:

  xterm-color|*-256color)

which would also help for things like rxvt-unicode-256color and screen-256color

Thanks,
