Public bug reported: When you have an image with an embedded ICC profile, nautilus simply discards the profile and shows the image with wrong colors. I have noticed this in two occasions.
1. Automatically generated thumbnails in the file manager. 2. Wallpapers. I'm not sure nautilus is responsible for the latter. I also reported is a Unity bug. https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1187352 To reproduce this, extract both images from the attached archive. The first picture has an embedded profile, the other was converted to the standard sRGB color space with the profile stripped. Open both images in a profile aware image viewer, such as eog. There is no color difference. Then go to the folder where you stored them, switch to icon view and let nautilus automatically make thumbnails. Use Ctrl+ till you have maximum thumbnail size. You will notice that the original picture with profile is less vibrant, and green in particular is more yellowish. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "p3.zip" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1190686/+attachment/3702479/+files/p3.zip ** Description changed: When you have an image with an embedded ICC profile, nautilus simply discards the profile and shows the image with wrong colors.
