[Gimp-user] Soft proofing in 2.6.5

[John Culleton]

I copied the standard Gimp color wheel into a png image. I 
loaded the image into Gimp 2.65. I tried to soft proof it 
using view>display and then selecting color management and 
color proof. There was no change in the image.  In theory 
there should be gray bars in the image where the CMYK gamut 
did not cover some shades. 

What more do I need to do to use soft proofing? If icc color 
profiles are needed how do I make them available to Gimp 
2.6.5? I have various icc profiles in ~/colors for use by 
Scribus.
