colord
======
colord is a system service that makes it easy to manage, install and generate
color profiles to accurately color manage input and output devices.
This functionality is implemented as a system activated daemon called colord.
Being system activated means that it's only started when the user is using a
text mode or graphical tool.
What colord does:
* Provides a DBus API for other programs to query, e.g.
"Get me the profiles for device $foo" or
"Create a device and assign it profile $bar"
* Provides a persistent database backed store for device -> profile mapping.
* Provides the session for a way to set system settings, for instance
setting the display profile for all users and all sessions.
See [the website](http://www.freedesktop.org/software/colord/) for more details.
