Sorry for the delay. I'm pretty sure this is user error, at least if
you have just one monitor. I would guess that you issued the command
eog test1.jpg twice. Please try one more time, and it's most safe to
do a cut and paste.

just start the entire process with
xprop -root -remove _ICC_PROFILE
just in case the profile is already loaded.
Eog in ubuntu has been color manged for a year or two already. If you
have imagemagick installed you can try display test1.jpg if you would
like a reference. Even firefox test1.jpg should give you a image
without screwed up color. The last one will hopefully change in the
future.
