Use ProductDescription for color profile listing in the Preference dialogs (2.28 KB, patch)

Description Pascal de Bruijn 2010-01-02 19:11:11 UTC 
Currently F-Spot primarily uses the ProductName field to display the profiles in the F-Spot preferences screen.

This is however faulty behavior... The problem with ProductName en ManufacturerName is that they contain just that. The ProductDescription field can contain a lot more information, for example:

Displays:
Whitepoint (D65/D50), Gamma, date of calibration, etc.

Printers:
Paper type, ink set, etc.

This is actually very important information to have, when selecting profiles.

I'm currently working on a patch, I hope to post it soon.

This patch seems to work well for me.

Could this patch make it into a 0.6.1.6 release?
