Just an update. I rewrote the existing Gimp lcms.c plug-in to use
lcm2. It seems to work just like the current Gimp plug-in. If anyone
is interested in testing it, I can supply the code.

As explained here: http://ninedegreesbelow.com/temp/gimp-lcms-3.html
(see summary at bottom of page), there are some coding issues to be
resolved before attempting to make the lcms2 plug-in do high-bit-depth
color conversions. So dealing with the coding issues is my next step.

Also, has anyone seen this Ubuntu bug report?
Completely replace lcms1 by lcms2 in Ubuntu

Kind regards,
Elle
