Text colors seem "fully selected", not sure how to fix about vim-colors-solarized HOT 3 OPEN

let g:solarized_termtrans = 1 worked for me in urxvt.

I put it in my .vimrc before any solarized lines.

Same issue for me. iTerm2, OS X 10.10 GM

from vim-colors-solarized.

Thanks @benoliver999 this fixed the issue for me too.

[EDIT 01 Dec 2014]: Now I figured out why the colors was off and powerline was without color, in my iTerm - Profile - Terminal - Report Terminal Type was set to xterm, which is old mode with degraded color support, setting it to xterm-16color fixed all color issues for me, so no need for solarized_termtrans.
iTerm2 2.0.0.20141103
vim 7.4.488 via Homebrew
Hope this helps someone.
