I am experimenting such a bug, and have been able to characterize it a little bit (with test profiles, to be sure) For what I can see, it happens on a dual monitor setup. Eye-of-Gnome (3.10.2, on trusty) is always using the ICC profile from the primary monitor (the one with the launcher), even when the window is on the secondary monitor.
This, with a version newer than the one where bug #272584 has been fixed, seem to prove that the previous duplicate status was wrong. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 272584 No colour conversion when image does not have embedded ICC profile -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to eog in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/671782 Title: Wrong colors displayed by eog on calibrated screens Status in eog package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: eog On a calibrated screen which use an ICC profile launched through dispwin, Eye-of-Gnome display wrong colors. Indeed it seems Eye-of- Gnome don't use well the ICC profile used by X. On contrary all other apps like gthumb, GIMP, Fspot, firefox, ... don't have this issue. According to the following dscussion EoG needs to have some metadata in the image telling that it is sRGB, however even with images containing metadata telling that it is sRGB the colors displayed are wrong. http://mail.gnome.org/archives/eog-list/2009-March/msg00010.html Thanks to anyone willing to help with this. In such state EoG is just unusable for photographers as it doesn't display the right colors.
