 Huh? The Preferences dialog is located in the Edit menu
 (as suggested by the GNOME HIG).

Just checked my copy of 2.6.5 and there are preferences 
entries on both menus. Perhaps one could be renamed.  
Tomorrow I will check out the correct one. 

Thanks,

Something is very broken about your copy of 2.6.5 then. Perhaps you
managed to mix up the menu XML files of GIMP 2.4 and GIMP 2.6 ?

 I copied the standard Gimp color wheel into a png image. I

 there should be gray bars in the image where the CMYK gamut 
 did not cover some shades. 
 
 What more do I need to do to use soft proofing? If icc color 
 profiles are needed how do I make them available to Gimp 
 2.6.5? I have various icc profiles in ~/colors for use by 
 Scribus.

You can either configure GIMP for Soft Proofing in the Color Management
section in the Preferences dialog, or, if you insist on doing it the
hard way, use View-Display Filters and set up the display filter
manually. Of course you will need color profiles. But it should be
obvious where to set them, no?
