Description
Every time I start my gnome-session by logging in I get this warning logged to syslog:
(gnome-settings-daemon:1218): color-plugin-WARNING **: failed to set screen _ICC_PROFILE: Datei »/home/username/.local/share/icc/edid-[some-id].icc« konnte nicht geöffnet werden: Keine Berechtigung
Where edid-[some-id].icc file exists in ~/.local/share/icc with mode -rw------ (600). "Keine Berechtigung" means "Permission denied".
I could only find one single reference to this _ICC_PROFILE in g-s-d and that is in gnome-settings-daemon/plugins/color/gsd-color-state.c:151. The process trying to do so is owned by gdm, not by the user. It looks like gnome-settings-daemon started by user gdm (and thus by gdm) tries to access this file, which is obviously wrong.
