Hello Till,

The handling of sRGB, sGray, and AdobeRGB in rastertopdf has been updated
in revision 7248 of cups-filters.

For both sGray and AdobeRGB, the PDF '/ColorSpace' is set to /CalGray and
/CalRGB, respectively, and are given the appropriate whitepoint/gamma
values.

For sRGB, the '/ColorSpace' references an /ICCBased array object, which in
the PDF will include an embedded sRGB profile in its stream (using LCMS to
create the profile).
