IIRC, rgb.txt came from the X11 Server sources and those colors were not
defined there.

Anyhow, I cannot find it in the X11 Server source and in some commits
they removed all references to that file. So it might no longer exist in
a maintained form.

As for LightRed, LightMagenta and DarkYellow, those colors are defined
in src/term.c:


{(char_u *)"darkyellow", RGB(0x8B, 0x8B, 0x00)}, /* No X11 */
{(char_u *)"lightmagenta", RGB(0xFF, 0x8B, 0xFF)}, /* No X11 */
{(char_u *)"lightred", RGB(0xFF, 0x8B, 0x8B)}, /* No X11 */
