okular gives the warning when seeing some postscript files. From a similar bug in ubuntu.

The originally reported bug here is not a problem of Ghostscript, but of how the /usr/bin/epstopdf script calls Ghostscript. The script is part of texlive-font-utils, moving ...

Sorry for closing the bug, I confused it with the warning being issued during the print workflow. In the print workflow I have fixed the problem by calling Ghostscript with "-dColorConversionStrategy=/LeaveColorUnchanged" instead of "-dUseDeviceIndependentColor", At least in the print workflow one can do so as the pre-filter for turning incoming PostScript to PDF is not supposed to do color corrections.

manu, your problem is probably in the way how okular calls Ghostscript. Please file a new bug in okular.

Okular does not call Ghostscript on its own, but uses the libspectre library for loading and rendering PostScript documents.
Please report the issue to the bug tracking system of libspectre at https://bugs.freedesktop.org, "libspectre" product.

Thanks.
