Hi list,

yet another question regarding the screen profile;-)
DT loads the screen profile automatically, which is totally fine for me.
Nevertheless I wonder if I could find some messages or feedback,
regarding the success of this operation or the actual source, from where
DT received the profile (X or colord).

I created my screen profile on the command line using argyllcms. First I
used the KDE equivalent of GCM to set the profile and probing the
ICC_PROFILE atom, using
xprop -root | grep ICC_PROFILE
seem to be fine. Also a colord process is running. The colors of the
display shift visibly, when loading the profile.

However, just for fun, I copied the screen profile in
~/.config/darktable/color/out
so that I could set the profile manually in the iop for the output
profile. Doing this, I expected that nothing changes, but the colors
shifted visibly.
So it seems to me that darktable either retrieves no profile or a
different one from X or colrod!?
Maybe you have some hints how to make some reasonable diagnostics?

BTW: I also tried this under gonme 3, using GCM to set the profile. The
result is the same. Trying something similar in gimp, worked fine and as
expected: Colors shift slightly, when switching on color correction and
there seems to be no visible difference between a manually set screen
profile or the automatically retrieved one.

Thanks and regards
Sören
