This applies to Ubuntu specifically since other flavors may specify a different color scheme that may not be affected. [Test case] 1) sudo dpkg-reconfigure debconf [Regression potential] None. This only applies to the display colors for a console, and only on a linux virtual console (ie. not a terminal). --- At least on Xenial and onwards, our color scheme for the VTs is not being applied, since setvtrgb is not getting run on boot (it's still only an upstart job). Porting setvtrgb to a systemd unit makes the pretty colors appear, and I can get my debconf/newt prompts back with an aubergine background.
