Same problem here:

Feb 27 22:33:01 box dbus[887]: [system] Activated service 'org.freedesktop.ColorManager' failed: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 1
Feb 27 22:33:02 box dbus[887]: [system] Activating service name='org.freedesktop.ColorManager' (using servicehelper)
Feb 27 22:33:02 box dbus[887]: [system] Activated service 'org.freedesktop.ColorManager' failed: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 1

It seems that /usr/local/lib/colord-plugins is missing:

% /usr/local/libexec/colord --verbose

Comment 3 Jean-Sébastien Pédron freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-03-10 23:24:02 UTC 
Hello!

I'm not sure the problem is related to darktable. Any application who wants to query colord (you could try colormgr(1) for instance) will trigger the message.

When I wanted to debug this, I tried to start /usr/local/libexec/colord manually: it did start and the error vanished... The problem seems to come from colord itself but I have no idea how to debug this further

Log:
  Tell colord to use /var to store information which is already prepared,
  instead of poking around in /usr/local/var/
