Well, maybe the error message is somewhat different. I've starting redshift from the command line after killing the agent and the message is.... [maria@f29b-xfce ~]$ redshift Trying location provider `geoclue2'... Using provider `geoclue2'. Using method `randr'. Waiting for initial location to become available... Unable to start GeoClue client: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: 'redshift' disallowed, no agent for UID 500. Access to the current location was denied by GeoClue! Make sure that location services are enabled and that Redshift is permitted to use location services. See https://github.com/jonls/redshift#faq for more information. Unable to get location from provider. So, I get "no agent for UID 500" and your error message is "Agent rejected 'redshift' for user '500".
