Colored packer output although no color packages installed

Open Markus00000 opened this issue 12 years ago • 4 comments

Packer outputs colored text although if have neither installed "packer-color" nor "pacman-color".

Especially problematic is having yellow text on a white terminal background...

Packer's man page says: "Packer output will be colorized if if pacman-color is installed."

Packer version: 20110731

export COLOR="NO"

export COLOR='NO'

Packer respects that env variable. I will change the man page soon -- it is obviously outdated.

Wouldn't it make more sense to use the standard ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED environment variable?

Wasn't aware of such a variable. Hmm.
