[Openicc] Adobe Color Profiles for Linux

[Kai-Uwe Behrmann]

Patrice,

thanks for the good news.


About the License I can not so much say. What I hope is that the 
discussions with distributors will lead to an aceptable solution for all 
sides.

For the RPM format - well maybe I was a little bit fixed on this end 
format during our conversation in summer. Of course it is a primarily 
used format. Nonetheless repackaging would be ideal as Bob Friesenhahn 
pointed out. Distributions like Ubuntu or Solaris dont know about rpm's.

The osX entries are not usefull on unix alike systems and easily 
detectable. It would be nice to technically avoid them.

Flat directories are an easy option. On the other side, as allready 
stated, Oyranos supports non flat directories. This has the 
advantage of easily structurise (grouping) profiles without further 
technical needs.
With CinePaint using Oyranos it will read the Adobe profiles.

regards
Kai-Uwe Behrmann
