No Did this work before? Yes I can't remember Does this work in other browsers? Yes Chrome version: 61.0.3163.100 Channel: stable OS Version: fedora 26 running kernel 4.13.11-200.fc26.x86_64 Flash Version: fedora had shipped gnome with color management enabled by default for ages and it used to work in previous versions of chrome and chromium. it seems that chrome is doing its own color management even though it's already done by gnome

No, chrome is now respecting color profiles provided by the operating system. Please look at this document for information on how to adjust the way chrome makes use of color profiles: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jMokB_OBkZVELu22li8vnHxAUoL1eGnLedP-1Gttv40/edit?usp=sharing If your problems persist, attach the color profile you are using as it might be revealing bugs in our implementation.

I'd like to think Chromium uses lcms2, so that we're all able to leverage the improvement made there. If there are browser specific performance requirements, again they should go into lcms2 were that work can be used elsewhere. Color management is sufficiently complex there is no good reason to be reinventing the wheel with different CMS engines, and inevitably repeating history with piles of bugs that need to be fixed in a new implementation that have already been fixed in the existing one.

> No, chrome is now respecting color profiles provided by the operating system. I'm afraid that there is double color correction is done, one by gnome color management and one by chrome, can we have chrome detect that my fedora is already doing color correction and stop its own correction. https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/color-whyimportant.html.en http://libregraphicsworld.org/blog/entry/richard-hughes-on-color-management-in-linux-and-gnome > Color management is sufficiently complex there is no good reason to be reinventing the wheel with different CMS engines totally agree > If your problems persist, attach the color profile you are using as it might be revealing bugs in our implementation. for now can we have a build/compile-time flag to disable this, to let fedora do the color correction on its own when using chromium shipped by fedora, until we figure our how to properly fix this

I very strongly suspect that you have installed a profile that you do not actually want -- that profile attached is extremely purple. I have yet to see Gnome cause anything to be rendered differently due to color profiles being installed (except for Eye of Gnome) -- it seems to mostly just ignore the profile. If you're convinced that Chrome is not treating your profile correctly, please see the last section in this document about forcing Chrome to use an sRGB profile in about:flags https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jMokB_OBkZVELu22li8vnHxAUoL1eGnLedP-1Gttv40/edit?usp=sharing

> I very strongly suspect that you have installed a profile that you do not actually want -- that profile attached is extremely purple. I did not define this color profile, it was enabled by fedora and it works well for firefox, gnome, ...etc. the problem is only visible in chrome/chromium in the past gimp used to have that problem, but it was solved. when I disabled color management in chrome, the problem was fixed. I guess the problem is that color correction is done twice, once by GTK3 or another by chrome how to know if my profile is wrong?
