On Manjaro 17.1.12 KDE, colord-kde does not require gnome-color-manager. It's
only an optional dependency for CALIBRATING the screen, and colord-kde's
dialogue teaches user about this fact very well.
colord-kde's most important function is to ASSIGN color profiles to displays.
It does not require gnome-color-manager to perform this function.
By not intalling colord-kde by default we take away the ability to assign color
profile to displays. This is an ESSENTIAL function on every modern operating
system. There is a reason why Windows, macOS, GNOME all has this very basic
function built-in by default.
I strongly suggest:
1) We reconsider the inclusion of colord-kde by default
2) We tell distros that: gnome-color-manager is only a optional dependency
3) If (1) and (2) are not feasible, keep "Color Corrections" page visible even
when colord-kde is absent, with instructions about installing colord-kde can
enable this page.
