Well, I've just added this:

    Add the sub-command import-profile to colormgr

But for older versions you can just manually copy the .icc file to
$HOME/.local/share/icc/ and then it will get automatically imported
into the daemon by whatever session component you have running
(gnome-settings-daemon or colord-kde).

You can add the newly added profile to the device using: colormgr
device-add-profile $device_path $profile_path

In newver colord versionsyou can also use the device-id and the
profile-id rather than the long DBus paths. If you tell me exactly
what you need from colord, I'll try and improve colormgr to do what
you need. Thanks,

Richard.
