Description of problem: In http://www.littlecms.com/profiles.zip (see "UTILITY PROFILES" link on http://www.littlecms.com/ ) there are "all profiles included in the demo program", whatever that may mean, but which most likely should be a part of 'lcms' package. It looks that they should go into '%{_datadir}/lcms' although I would be inclined to change a suffix consistently everywhere to '.icm'. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.14-1
IMO, "most likely should be part of 'lcms' package" is rather vague. The README.1ST file mentions an uncertain/unclear licencing situation: About profiles ============== The demo of this package includes some profiles for colorspace conversions. I figure all of them are in public domain, but since some contains copyright notice, I will enumerate here the sources: Sun Microsystems Java SDK (widely available) Kodak public FTP site: ftp.kodak.com ICM Stress demo from microsoft. www.microsoft.com sRGB from sRGB site www.srgb.com If you found some profile of these not to be in public domain, please notify me. I will remove the offending profile as soon as posible.
This bug hasn't been updated in a long time and targets FE devel. Could you please check that it still occurs with current FE devel and update accordingly ? Thanks.
> Could you please check that it still occurs with current FE devel In the meantime lcms moved from Extras to Core (and, BTW, the current version on http://www.littlecms.com/ is 1.16 while 1.15 is in distributions and that includes "rawhide" as well). I guess that I better move that report if only possbile That the problem is still present it is rather trivial to check by doing 'rpm -ql lcms | grep -i icm' which comes up empty. There are two profiles in lcms sources. Namely, 'sRGB Color Space Profile.icm', which shows up there three times with three different time stamps, and 'sRGBSpac.icm'. They do not appear in a binary package. It is far from clear that at least some profiles can be found at http://www.littlecms.com/newutils.htm#profiles, where more profiles became available, not it is clear from a documentation where they should be put. Without profiles a utility of all this is somewhat, ahem, limited.
It is not clear to me if we can include such icc/icm profiles within Fedora. At least i'm interested in the subject as oyranos will provides some. Even if they are in public domain they might been generated from source. And as such, utilities like argyll (added to Fedora recently) or lprof can help with this.
Fedora apologizes that these issues have not been resolved yet. We're sorry it's taken so long for your bug to be properly triaged and acted on. We appreciate the time you took to report this issue and want to make sure no important bugs slip through the cracks. If you're currently running a version of Fedora Core between 1 and 6, please note that Fedora no longer maintains these releases. We strongly encourage you to upgrade to a current Fedora release. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer maintained and closing them. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LifeCycle/EOL If this bug is still open against Fedora Core 1 through 6, thirty days from now, it will be closed 'WONTFIX'. If you can reporduce this bug in the latest Fedora version, please change to the respective version. If you are unable to do this, please add a comment to this bug requesting the change. Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point. The process we are following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp We will be following the process here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this doesn't happen again.

What NEEDINFO? All info which can provided by "third-parties" is already in comments.
Read comment #5 again. This bug is filed against an unmaintained Fedora release. You are asked to reproduce this bug on any maintained Fedora (7, 8 or rawhide) and update the version field accordingly.
Ok, lets make that for Fedora 8. 'rpm -ql lcms' does not show any profiles. I think that comment #4 provided some suggestions but I am not aware of any followups.
This bug remains indeed. The oyranos ICC profiles utility has been imported but no icc profiles will be bundled. (same with argyll) The problem is to figure out the license, and to generate theses profiles from "a prefered form for edition".
This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
