Issue Monitor color calibration does not work in Mint 20.1. It worked in Mint 19.x using the same hardware.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Connect calibration device, e.g. Datacolor Spyder5
  2. Open settings -> Color -> Choose a monitor -> Click "Calibrate..."
  3. Nothing happens when clicking the button, but you can see the following output in the terminal: 
    
Using PAM module (python3-pam)
/usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/cinnamon-settings.py:427: DeprecationWarning: Gtk.Window.set_wmclass is deprecated
self.window.set_wmclass(wm_class, wm_class)
Failed to install packages: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.PackageKit was not provided by any .service files

(cinnamon-settings.py:27898): WARNING : 12:35:16.810: failed to install required component



**Expected behaviour**
Calibration window should be opened.

**Other information**
Calibration is working in Ubuntu 20.04.

It doesn't install gnome-color-manager here

gnome-installer is broken.

cinnamon-desktop gnome-installer seems to have a missing packagekit dependency

I manually installed gnome-color-manager but now I get the following error in the terminal when clicking on the "Calibrate..." button:

$ cinnamon-settings color

gcm-calibrate was removed

I'm now using DisplayCAL for calibration. I think the "Calibrate..." button should be removed to avoid confusion.
