​Shouldn't a terminal configuration use colors that are always readable on
the default background color anyway? Then, assuming that you're not
overwriting the background color, the only two colors you should avoid are
black and white. All the other colors should be fine. Instead of setting
the foreground color to black/white you should just use the default
foreground color, possibly bold. I assume this is already the case for
pacman.
