DetailsIn most linux distributions, /etc/profile will set the LS_COLORS using dir_colors. Arch does not do this. The default place for colours are /etc/DIR_COLORS and ~/.dir_colors. To make Arch look for these files, something similar to this would need to be added to /etc/profile:
eval `dircolors /etc/DIR_COLORS` eval `dircolors ~/.dir_colors Tests to see if the file is there must be added, I'll leave that up to you. Thank you! |

conclusion:
- DIR_COLORS (attached to this bug) should go to coreutils pkg
- /etc/profile should eval ~/.dir_colors and if not existant /etc/DIR_COLORS
Should we just not include a default file but have the logic?
