Hey list, another question.

When building, colord uses colprof to generate the common CMYK
profiles, e.g. FOGRA30L and ISOnewspaper26 from ti3 source data.
colprof can only create V2 profiles unless I'm mistaken.
After colord has finished, colord then opens the created file, and
then inserts some translated description, copyright and profile
description using three mluc tags. To insert the mluc tag as the
description, colord has to call cmsSetProfileVersion(hProfile,4.0) so
that we can write some type other than 'desc' for the description.

Is this okay to change a CMYK profile from V2 to V4 just to write a
'mluc' key? I'm fine shipping v4 profiles as all the RGB profiles are
v4 only. I could use the newly introduced
cmsSigProfileDescriptionMLTag which Apple uses for V2 profiles with
translated descriptions and avoid changing the version although this
really isn't standard. Advice welcome. Thanks.

Richard.
