colorcommentsminted
I'm putting some C code on my report using minted package, but the comment color is blue while I want it to be gray.
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[cache=false]{minted}
\begin{document}
\begin{minted}[linenos]{c}
#include<Wire.h> //Wire library allow us to communicate with the I2C that we are using
\end{minted}
\end{document}
These option clashes happen when a package is requested to be loaded on two different positions, like by you and inside another package, but with different options. The package is loaded by the first \usepackage (or its twin \RequirePackage); it isn't loaded again when it is requested again. It simply can't be loaded a second time. Therefore the new options can be activated and previous options might conflict with the second usage. So LaTeX creates an error to report this issue to you.
The way to fix this is to declare the options beforehand using \PassOptionsToPackage{<options>}{<package>}. Then they are used wherever the package is loaded.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{ifpdf}
\ifpdf
\PassOptionsToPackage{pdftex,usenames,dvipsnames}{color}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{libertine} % most likely loads 'color' itself
%\usepackage{lmodern} % doesn't load 'color'
\usepackage{color}
\usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}
\else
%\bye
\fi
\begin{document}
Hello, world!
\end{document}
I can't test it by myself, because I don't have the libertine package installed.
I don't think you need to set pdftex manually. Normally packages do a good job recognizing the driver by themselves. Also you might want to use the extended xcolor package instead of color.
Like David Carlisle wrote in the comments, it is possible by simply using the \color command inside of a block:
Some text ...
{
\color{red}
Red text ...
\begin{equation}
1+1=2
\end{equation}
}
Some more text ...
The result looks like:

There are various color schemas for minted, and several of them have gray comments. One example is the
pastiestyle:You can find examples of the different styles on https://help.farbox.com/pygments.html. These examples are for Python highlighting, but the color of the comments (starting with
#in Python) is the same for other languages such as C. You can also try out the styles on your own code easily on https://pygments.org/demo/. Note that not all of the styles may be available on your system (but probably they are).
