Bug Description

Availability: Currently available in Universe, building on all currently supported architectures, see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lcms2

Rationale: In Oneiric we want to introduce ICC-based color management on the operating system level, using the same architecture as Fedora does. lcms2 is central part of this architecture as it is needed by colord. Therefore we need it in Main. This MIR is a work item of the following Blueprint:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-icc-color-management

According to the Blueprint additional demand on CD space for the whole introduction of color management is around 300K only.

Security: No security vulnerabilities known at CVE and Secunia explicitly for lcms2, vulnerabilities of predecessor lcms back in 2009 already fixed, no SUID components, no daemons, pure library package.

Quality assurance: Installs without debconf questions (maintainer scripts only to run "ldconfig"), the package does not need to be configured. The package is maintained upstream as new releases occur regularly and it gets packaged for Debian by Oleksandr Moskalenko (see debian/changelog) and synced into Ubuntu.

UI standards: Package has no UI.

Dependencies: Depends only on standard libraries, needed by colord.

Maintenance: See "Quality assurance".

lcms2 is needed by colord, and colord should also go into Main, see its MIR as bug 823185.

Looks mostly fine, even has a nice test suite. However, there's no symbols file for the library. That's really helpful for making sure upgrades of libraries go smoothly. I like to see any library that enters main have one.

It would also be nice to see a bug subscriber in Ubuntu, but that's not a blocker.

mterry, I have uploaded a new package (2.2+git20110628-2ubuntu1) with the symbols file now.
