Package: procps
Version: 1:3.3.10-1
Severity: important
Hi,
Suddenly after an upgrade, top grew strange defaults, with ugly ANSI art
for CPU load, and more importantly, a red-on-black color scheme.
Dark red on black is completely unreadable for someone with a visual
impairment and/or in difficult lighting conditions, and I cannot find any
documentation on how to revert it. Furthermore, NEWS.Debian contains no
information on the change. Can I please ask that this is reverted to how
it was in 3.3.9-7? I've verified that downgrading the package fixes the
issue.
(I don't have a .toprc, so I assume these are defaults, not just something
odd that happened to my install.)

Version: 2:3.3.9-8
It seems the maintainer has re-uploaded 3.3.9 with an epoch, which fixes the
issue, so I'm marking this as closed.
FWIW, it also seems one could configure 3.3.10 with --disable-modern-top
to get the classic defaults back.
