Unnecessary error message shown when trying to calibrate webcam from color section in gnome-control-center

[Daniel Halvorsen]

When launching color from gnome-control-center and trying to calibrate webcam error message shows: "Installing packages by files isn't supported. This method hasn't yet been implemented."

This is not critical. If this is a feature to-be-implemented in the future that is also fine. However why enoy the users with this message until it is actually working? The calibrate button should not be shown if it's not in use.

Good point, however this should be discussed to know the reasons it was released that way.
