Bug still present in 0.10.0. 

As mentioned above by Dik Takken, while saving digikam adds a wrong profile to
the picture. This profile claims to be sRGB, but has a shifted white point.
Instead of the normal D65 (6500 K) it says D50 (5000 K). 

So opening it with a software that can read and use icc profiles (e.g.
photoshop, firefox) causes a nasty colour shift. It also affects image printing
services. Two days before I sent 50 pictures to http://saal-digital.de and
about a dozen were edited with digikam. I was about to exhibit them this
weekend, but now all edited pictures have this nasty shift.

Digikam is a great tool to organise, edit and correct pictures, but this bug
causes a lot of extra work for me because now I must rework my pictures with
other programs to work around this bug.

I also added a bug report yesterday containing roughly the same:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=189250
I think it's now obsolete and could be closed, I just don't know how to do
that.
