Re: add libcolorblind as an external dependencie

... Again, this filter is not meant to help usage of gnome applications itself, because gnome is already colorblind-friendly. We're talking here mainly about web content. To show that, I've taken some usefull screenshots using vertical split in gnome-mag [1]. Thanks for the screenshots
