[SOLVED] No colors in Pacman for some terminals

I activated the color option in /etc/pacman.conf but when I use pacman with Alacritty or terminal-xfce I have no color (except some colons).
When I use Konsole (from KDE Plasma) it works as expected with colors.
Any idea why ?

(please note that I use Fish and not Bash).

Here is Alacritty :

Here is terminal-xfce :

And here is Konsole :

Konsole has the theme/profile that prints bold text in plasma-blue

Thank you. I looked at the alacritty conf file and I found how to activate the color for bold text.
It's in ~/.config/alacritty/alacritty.toml

I added this :

[colors]
draw_bold_text_with_bright_colors = true

[colors.primary]
bright_foreground = "#6a9fb5"

And the result is :

Thanks again!
