           Summary: Color managed view is inaccurate
           Product: digikam
           Version: 0.9.4
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Color Management
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: d.h.j.takken at xs4all.nl


Version:           0.9.4 (using KDE 3.5.9)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

When I use DigiKam to prepare images for printing, I always compare the final
result using both DigiKam, CinePaint and the GIMP. All applications are
configured to use the same color management profiles, rendering intent and
blackpoint compensation.

Often, it strikes me how different images look in DigiKam compared to the GIMP
and CinePaint. The same image viewed using the GIMP and CinePaint look
identical, while it looks quite different in DigiKam.

When I print my images using a color managed printing lab, both GIMP and
CinePaint are spot on. The print matches the display of both applications. So I
guess that something is wrong with the color managed view of DigiKam.

I will attach some screenshots of photographs shown in all three applications.
The screenshots show that the view of DigiKam is quite a bit brighter, and the
colors are much warmer.
