I can change my directory color from dark blue to light blue (but not
cyan as that is my sym link color ;).  I see that `dircolors -p` gives
me the mapping for the colors I'm using now.  However, dir color uses
values like 34 for blue.  I would like to just define my own color from
the list of colors available in `showrgb`, is this possible?

Some of this depends on the RH version I believe but look in
/etc/profile.d/colorsls.sh for where these get set.  On my RH 7.3 laptop
you can create a file ~/.dircolors or ~/.dir_colors to over ride the
values in /etc/DIR_COLORS

Seems like on a RH 8 system there is some use of the term type in
determining the file to pass to dircolors
