Description Alexander E. Patrakov 2014-08-25 15:44:56 UTC
GNOME color manager relies on a session component to create profiles with colord. However, it does not express this dependency using standard Gentoo mechanisms.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Gentoo with MATE, carefully avoiding GNOME things not shared with MATE.
2. Install gnome-color-manager.
3. Run gcm-import existing_profile.icc  (in my case, the profile came with the monitor on a CD).
Actual Results:  
"The profile was not added in time" message box, making the application useless.

Expected Results:  
Profile added and applied. Or rather, portage not allowing me to install gnome-color-manager.

Upstream has closed this as a NOTABUG and advised that one either needs to run gnome-settings-daemon or kded + colord-kde. This is effectively a dependency, but it is not expressed in the ebuild.
