Package: redshift-gtk Version: 1.12-4 Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Hi, this week I installed multiple laptops with Debian Bullseye and was wondering why the battery lifetime was so bad. The cause was obvious upon first glance into htop: redshift-gtk was running for GDM's GTK greeter, but instead of working correctly it was constantly consuming 100% power of one CPU core. After killing redshift-gtk, the battery lifetime quadrupled. redshift-gtk should either not be launched for the "Debian-gdm" user or work correctly in the GDM GTK greeter session. Note: this only affects Bullseye (and probably Sid), on Buster this issue is non-existent as redshift-gtk does not start with the GDM GTK greeter session. Regards Philipp
