I can confirm this. Except that now redshift 1.9.x is no longer only in
experimental, but is actually in testing and aiming to be released with
Jessie. Whereas redshift 1.7.x (in testing up to yesterday) was working
perfectly fine, 1.9.x is essentially broken, at least out of the box and
for people who don't want (or cannot) set latlong explicitly.
Any chance this is going to be fixed for jessie?
Thanks for maintaining redshift!
Cheers.
I haven't seen this issue because I use redshift on KDE. redshift bare
works fine if you provide it the location details.
I just verified and there indeed is the problem with redshift with
location providers. If you run with the list option, the supported sets
are geoclue and manual. I'm assuming that is why it has been failing for
all the gtk users.
My build logs show that support for GNOME/GTK was enabled at build time.
But for some reason, it was not honored during the build. I have filed
a bug report upstream. Interested users can follow it here:

@pasky - Bug report submitter: I installed gtk-redshift package and ran
redshift-gtk binary. Which I did not see any pop-up, there was no crash
reported either. Do you still see the crash ?
