Bug#786946: Bug#787338: ftp.debian.org: incorrect lintian error leads to auto-rejection
Dear norbert,
Could you check if the term you quote really apply to the file
sRGB_IEC61966-2-1_black_scaled.icc ? I think the term you quote
apply only to test profile. Care to prod upstream ?
Maybe the website is not updated....
Thanks
Bastien

Before downloading
sRGB_IEC61966-2-1_black_scaled.icc I must agree to this non free legal term:
v2 profiles
An ICC version 2 (v2) sRGB profiles is provided below, with XYZ black
point scaling to zero. This 'black scaled' profile has the preferred
rendering intent in the header set to 'perceptual'.
The profile contains the standard linearized Bradford D65 to D50
chromatic adaptation tag (this tag was often not present in older sRGB
profiles), and the media white point tag is set to D50 (as is required
for ICC v4 display profiles). This avoids the inappropriate color
casts that older sRGB v2 ICC profiles sometimes produced when the
absolute colorimetric intent was used.
The profile will work correctly when either Black Point Compensation
(BPC) is on in the CMM/application, or the other profile transform to
be used for the conversion is also black scaled. Black scaled profiles
are needed when BPC is desired for the conversion but the CMM to be
used does not support BPC. Most v2 sRGB profiles in current use are
black scaled because they are intended to be used as the source
profile in conversions where the destination profile perceptual intent
will be used (v2 perceptual transforms typically include black
scaling).
NOTE: This profile was revised in February 2015 to bring the black
point tag into alignment with current ISO and IEC recommendations.
