Public bug reported:

When performing display color calibration through gnome-color-manager
using hardware colorimeter (pantone huey in my case) odd profile results
are obtained and sometimes the process fails. The problem is probably
due to the test on-screen color patches that are rendered in a full
screen window but have a trasparent layer applied to them instead of
being opaque as expected (see atteched screenshot). This does not appear
to be an argyll problem as the calibration with the same setup can be
performed sussessfully installing and using DisplayCAL app that also
uses argyll. The bug is also present in the X session.
