Comment 1 Richard Hughes 2011-08-27 10:14:55 UTC

I think I fixed this with:

commit df30d9ea067770c29169d026185be92797ce2fb5
Author: Richard Hughes <richard@hughsie.com>
Date:   Wed Aug 24 12:35:43 2011 +0100

    color: If there are no profiles or devices then hide the toolbar

:100644 100644 17bb2b6... 76d87c1... M  panels/color/cc-color-panel.c

Can you please verify, and reopen if it's still present in git master please. Thanks.
