it turned out my /etc/X11/rgb.txt file was missing.
See my following post for more info.

Hello everyone !
My /usr has been slightly damaged, after a hard reboot. Now any x app
using tk dies at startup.(see error message below)
I've tried --reinstalling tk (8.2) , installing a new tk (8.3) but no
success.
I wonder if it's possible to --reinstall every package tk depends on ?
But would it work ? All other x-related apps (mostly gtk-based) work fine,
as far as I can see...
Thanks for any idea,
Romain
error message from tk:
Application initialization failed: unknown color name Black
Error in startup script: can't invoke winfo command: application has
been destroyed
while executing
winfo depth .
(file /etc/tkcvs/tkcvs_def.tcl line 1)
invoked from within
if {[file exists /etc/tkcvs/tkcvs_def.tcl]} {
source /etc/tkcvs/tkcvs_def.tcl
}
(file /usr/bin/tkcvs line 50)
The only common part between all tk apps being the line about Black , the
other error messages depend on the app used.
