Colour management on Wayland/KDE

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi,

The Wayland support is not implemented yet in the digiKam color
management wrapper. Only the X11 support is present.
This last one must work as expected is the Wayland/X11 interface is
installed in your computer.

Code relevant is here :

Best regards

Gilles Caulier
