Public bug reported:

Many packages in Ubuntu use the liblcms1 library (source package lcms).
This library is discontinued upstream and replaced by liblcms2. Due to
this bugs in liblcms1 are not fixed any more upstream and important
improvements in color reproduction and safety against crashes are not
done. Therefore we should remove lcms1 and migrate all programs using it
to lcms2.
