Bug ID: 414076
Summary: emacs (GUI) does not start (Undefined color:
"WINDOW_FOREGROUND")
Product: Breeze
Version: unspecified
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: gtk theme
Assignee: uhh...@gmail.com
Reporter: gianluigi.pa...@protonmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
emacs does not start, the error is the following:
Undefined color: "WINDOW_FOREGROUND"
According to emacs dev (?), this is outside of Emacs control. There are some
files that expects to be run through the preprocessor, but isn't. (sic)

It seems that this happens because KDE's defaults apply its color and font
definitions even to applications that weren't compiled for KDE. Interesting

I try to remove /usr/share/kdisplay/app-defaults/Emacs.ad or make this file
empty. In these cases, the error is now the following:
Undefined color: "FOREGROUND"
I want to keep the breeze dark style for my GTK applications (System Settings >
Application Style > GNOME Application Style (GTK)) so I didn't uncheck anything
in those GTK settings.
