Hello Daniel,

This is NOT a user error, and your upstream bug report at github https:/
/github. com/jonls/ redshift/ issues/ 58 title states "Out of a X
session", which is completely FALSE. How could it be out of an X session
when starting Redshift-gtk from the menus before try_ing in console
because hitting the menu entry will not trigger any event?

Closing this bug report is a mistake isn't it ? Could it be that the bug
comes from the other's fault? No it does not.

I seriously think that something is wrong with the way it is compiled
for the package : at least and until you tell me how it works fine in
other distributions and not in Ubuntu Precise, we can consider that
something is not done right with the packaging.

Here a screenshot I just took in my Archlinux box, to show you it really works! 
Of course it also comes from the upstream sources...

Precise Pangolin, being a LTS supported until 2017 should benefit of
some efforts in the quality which would be one more reason to not give
up on a Reshift-gtk working in Precise. This is not an unimportant
program, this is a program which all should know about, because
Redshift, with it's handy GTK gui is of a great help to prevent the eyes
from being hurt when using the computer a lot. I consider it being a
VERY desirable program to have in the system.

As packages are taken from Debian sid before being ported to Ubuntu, I
want to ask Debian users who I know if Redshift-gtk works correctly in
Wheezy and in Jessie. Would you please be kind enough to reopen it until
I can take the time for a hand compilation in Precise? I need to check
if I have all the devel packages needed and take the time at some chosen
moment for that. I would check in both 32 and 64bits.

Regards,
Mélodie
