Attached are the following files:

eog_screenshot.jpg - left image is correctly displayed (this is how it
is displayed also in GIMP with colour management active), right image
has wrong colours (too saturated red).

image_sRGB.jpg - test image with embedded ICC profile (sRGB).

image_no_icc_im.jpg - test image without embedded ICC profile. The
profile was stripped by "convert image_sRGB.jpg +profile icc
image_no_icc_im.jpg"

It appears to me that "image_no_icc_im.jpg" was not converted to the
monitor profile and displayed "as-is" - i.e. on wide gamut monitor it
appears over-saturated.

Few notes:

My monitor is Samsung XL20 capable of displaying gamut close to
AdobeRGB. The monitor profile was created by ArgyllCMS; xcalib set the
profile to update LUT (or rather X gamma curves) and the xicc atom,
which is supposedly used by EoG, GIMP and few other applications.

The eog_screenshot.jpg was assigned the monitor profile (i.e. wide
gamut) and converted to sRGB with perceptual rendering intent so that it
displays correctly on standard monitors even in applications not
supporting colour management.

NB that on a standard monitor, which has gamut close to sRGB, you
probably won't see a significant difference between the two test images,
since their gamut is sRGB, too.
