Package: redshift Version: 1.7-2.1 Severity: wishlist Hi.
the geoclue provider seems problematic (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/redshift/+bug/808006 for instance), but I've found a way to make it work. So my suggestion would be to enable it in the packaging. The changes may need adjusting the DEFAULT_PROVIDER and DEFAULT_PROVIDER_PATH in src/location-geoclue.c, too. With the provided changes (see attachment for a quick and dirty repackaging), I'm able to use it with : gtk-redshift -l geoclue:name=org.freedesktop.Geoclue.Providers.Hostip:path=/org/freedesktop/Geoclue/Providers/Hostip Note that I have registered my IP at hotip.info, which helps ;-) Hope this helps.
