Of no fault of my own (as far as I know) the default linux console colors are no longer showing. Both for KDE Konsole and in a tty console. I have not changed any configuration for this. Checking under Konsole profile and it is as it has always been, using Linux colors.
Colors should be black background with white text, with various colors for directories, symlinks, executable, etc.
Perhaps something has changed from a previous update. Maybe I removed a package that was needed for this.
I haven’t change anything with the ls command myself. Don’t know why it should have been changed by the system.

With the following command I see colors in Konsole:
ls -l --color=auto
MY fault. I changed the ls command in order to change the time format. This is why the colors where gone.
