Subject: bug#29716: 25.1; Wrong brackground-mode on gnome-terminal
Date: Sun, 07 Jan 2018 21:24:58 -0200

Got this:

   background: rgb:2323/2727/2929^[

Anyway, I might just have found the issue.

The patch set the version to 200 before evaluating the following 
code:

         (when (> version 4000)
           (xterm--query "\e]11;?\e\\"
                         '(("\e]11;" . 
                         xterm--report-background-handler))))

So the expression above is never evaluated.

I moved the `(setq version 200)' line to the line after the `(when 
...)' expression and it is working now but don't know if it is 
exactly what you would do.

Thank you once again!
