gnome-color-manager is a standard part of GNOME 3… and doesn't work in openSUSE.
There are a few reasons why it doesn't work:
1) argyllcms isn't installed by default (and it's a dependency for gnome-color-manager to work)
2) argyllcms isn't even packaged in the main repository (it's in multimedia:photo)
3) gnome-color-manager even knows that argyll must be installed, however, it silently fails when trying to install the package (due to #2)
I didn't know about argyllcms :/ I'll see if it can get pushed for next release. I'm not sure it should be a hard dependency, but at least a Recommends, I guess.
4) monitor awareness and default profiles are not set up by default (and are missing from the session) unless one toggles the color setting in dconf under org > gnome > settings-daemon > plugins > color > active (this can be accomplished using dconf-editor)
I didn't have that on a brand new 12.1 install. I guess you had the plugin disabled at some point in the past?
5) when the color plugin is activated, it prompts the user several times for the administrator password; there's some issue with authentication where it isn't given the correct privileges a single time
That's really bug 698250.
6) similar to #5, an admin password is needed a couple times each time the profile is changed
