Package: redshift-gtk Version: 1.12-4 Severity: minor Hi
I recently noticed that redshift and redshift-gtk now ship user-level systemd instances, which appear to have been automatically activated, so that systemd starts them automatically on login. This causes two actual redshift instances to be started on login, as seen here: % ps ax | grep redshift 10027 ? Ssl 0:00 /usr/bin/redshift 10028 ? Ssl 0:00 /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/redshift-gtk 10034 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/bin/redshift -v 10045 pts/2 S+ 0:00 grep redshift This seems to happen because each of redshift.service and redshift-gtk.service starts their own redshift instance. These two instances then seem to cause other trouble. For example, when deactivating redshift throgh the redshift-gtk icon, the display shifts to the day temperature and then reverts immediately to the night temperature, because only one of the redshift instances has actually been deactivated. I can fix this locally for me, by disabling redshift.service. But I guess this package is used by users who aren't as experienced with systemd, so I think a default configuration that works out-of-the-box (without starting two competing redshift instances) would be preferable.
