    Quack,

    While generating maps with minetestmapper I encountered a problem: the colors.txt file is not always provided by the game (VoxeLibre does,
    Asuna does not) and when it does there is a long list of unknown blocks
    and I suppose the file has not been kept up-to-date for quite some time. Moreover mods may add blocks of their own.

    To fix this upstream explains in their README.rst we need use the `util/generate_colorstxt.py` script to generate this file. Unfortunately
    it is not currently installed by the package because the cmake rules
    does not take care of it.

    It only requires python3-pil. I have tested it on a server on bookworm
    with two maps and it appears to be working.

    Would you consider adding it in the package please?

    Regards.
