Bug Description

https://github.com/hughsie/colord/commit/98f83acc910f527496fc149511c9dfa35f954be9

The domain listed in the upload URI in the gschema has been taken over by spammers.

The library libcolorhug2 is still installed by default as a dependency of colord.

This is still an issue in Mantic and Noble at the end of 2023. Gnome has been clear on their abandonment. This isn't usable and shouldn't be required in any Ubuntu version. Currently it is a dependency.
