default background color impacts foreground color

Newsbeuter version (copy from newsbeuter -v):

Compilation date/time: Mar  8 2017 21:56:57
System: Linux 4.10.11-1-ARCH (x86_64)
Compiler: g++ 6.3.1 20170306
ncurses: ncurses 6.0.20170401 (compiled with 6.0)
libcurl: libcurl/7.54.0 OpenSSL/1.1.0e zlib/1.2.11 libpsl/0.17.0 (+libicu/59.1) libssh2/1.8.0 (compiled with 7.53.1)
SQLite: 3.18.0 (compiled with 3.17.0)
libxml2: compiled with 2.9.4

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. having color listnormal white default in the config file (or an empty config file)

Other info you think is relevant:
The default parameter on the background is impacting the foreground as well, with the config is set with color listnormal white default both the background and foreground are black however with color listnormal white black the expected behaviour is witnessed.

I tried in a tty, urxvt and terminator and the issue is the same.

It is indeed not a big issue since I can set the backgound to black by myself, but I thought it might be interesting to report because now without any config file the text is not readable.

Hi; thanks for the report!

I'm pretty sure this is the same problem as #528. Can you please upgrade to ncurses 6.0.20170429 and check if the issue still exists?

Had the same problem, It's ncurses.
Either upgrade to 6.0.20170429 or downgrade to pre-6.0.20170401

Indeed it seems to come from ncurses, I have downgraded to 6.020170128 and it works fine now. Thanks for the quick reply and thank you for maintaining/developing this piece of software!

You're most welcome! ;)
