Bug Description
Binary package hint: screen
I was playing with Vim's 256 color capabilities and I found out that they won't work in (GNU) screen. That's very sad, because I run most things on top of screen.
Some googling pointed me to a few directions:

I followed the suggestions in the latter link and compiled screen myself with:
--enable-colors256
In fact it's just a matter of uncommenting a line in ./debian/rules
I wonder if we can update screen to come with this option by default, since xterm already uses it.
Thanks.
PS: By the way, if you like Vim, check inkpot. It's a sweet color scheme. You'll probably understand why I'm making this request. : )

Not sure why I got this assigned, but *shrug* why not.
