Public bug reported:

Note that this MIR replaces the MIR for Argyll (bug 821883). After a
short discussion with Martin Pitt (pitti) I have separated the source
packages of argyll and libicc again to only promote libicc into Main.

Availability: Currently available in Universe, building on all currently
supported architectures, see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libicc

Rationale: In Oneiric we want to introduce ICC-based color management on
the operating system level, using the same architecture as Fedora does.
libicc (ICC handling library) are part of this architecture. Therefore
we need them in Main. This MIR is a work item of the following
Blueprint:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-icc-color-
management

According to the Blueprint additional demand on CD space for the whole
introduction of color management is around 300K only.

Security: No security vulnerabilities known at CVE and Secunia for the
current version, vulnerabilities of older versions are all fixed, no
SUID components, no daemons.

Quality assurance: Installs without debconf questions. The package is
maintained upstream as new releases occur regularly and they get
packaged for Debian by Roland Mas (see debian/changelog).

UI standards: The package is a library without UI.

Dependencies: Depends only on standard libraries and will be needed by
Ghostscript and other color-managed applications.

Maintenance: See "Quality assurance".
