Supporting OpenIccDirectoryProposal



OpenIccDirectoryProposal is a proposal to make the main CMMs in Linux
and UNIX adhere to a common directory spec. I stumbled on it this
morning, and agree with what it's trying to achieve. As such, I've
committed two changes to GCM in git master (not gnome-2-30) to adhere
to this spec:

    Use the common data path from OpenIccDirectoryProposal

    No migration is required, the old location is searched as well.

:100644 100644 50f9001... 806fa26... M  src/gcm-import.c
:100644 100644 a0bd735... 882fc53... M  src/gcm-profile-store.c
:100644 100644 2760b75... 10e3367... M  src/gcm-utils.c
:100644 100644 3f9e5e0... 7c1c380... M  src/gcm-utils.h

commit 784a617285b82f4d2276cd8d7ce03d883066e10f
Author: Richard Hughes <richard hughsie com>
Date:   Sat May 22 08:24:58 2010 +0100

    Use the common configuration path from OpenIccDirectoryProposal

    You will need to rename ~/.config/gnome-color-manager to
    ~/.config/color if you want to re-use your old configuration

:100644 100644 2da35ed... 2760b75... M  src/gcm-utils.c

You can see from the last commit a rename is required if you don't
want to re-assign all your profiles. I might do that automatically
closer to the 2.31.2 release if there are people that file bugs,
although it would be upsetting to run a GCM from a checkout which made
your system GCM stop working.

Maybe I can just put it in the release notes.

Richard.
