rgb.txt has been removed with patch v8.2.376 once the colors list became
available with patch v8.2.3562

I would check the v:colornames dictionary, see :h v:colornames.

If you have a recent terminal, chances are you can use rgb color names
directly by :set termguicolors and then setting the guifg/guibg color
names directly. See :h xterm-true-color
