Please, look at official specification (http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized#the-values), base colors should not be changed across light and dark variations. fg and bg links to this colors should be changed. It is not your mistake, it is mistake in this repo.
Take a look at my .Xresources: https://github.com/seletskiy/dotfiles/blob/master/.Xresources.dark https://github.com/seletskiy/dotfiles/blob/master/.Xresources.light
So this repo should be changed to more closely match your setup? I think
that would make it easier to use with xrdb
.

I came to the exact same conclusion after a problem with vim-colors-solarized which reversed light and dark background when light colors were set in .Xresources. The example file should be changed to reflect your method, @seletskiy, so that color0-15 are unchanged by changing terminal background.
Terribly sorry about this, everyone. Not only did I screw up the inverse color scheme (following some wording in the spec too literally) and @altercation trusted me too much to notice I'd misinterpreted it, but I've had the proper replacement and a script to generate both forms for months.
Will follow up on this as soon as I can. Thanks for your patience!
It seems the version in the repo is still broken when using light colors, right?
@seletskiy version seems to be consistent.
@TrevorBramble Ping. Can you fix this, please?
See https://github.com/altercation/solarized/pull/68 for an attempt at using intermediate #define
s.
@seletskiy Just for info: I've used your files for a new PR: https://github.com/solarized/xresources/pull/6
That way someone can just use
xrdb xresources/solarized-light
instead of editing the file in order to switch between light and dark themes
