See my suggestions for solving these geoclue-hostip issues : https://bugs.launchpad.net/redshift/+bug/808006/comments/15
I have now in my ~/.config/redshift.conf : [redshift] location-provider=geoclue [geoclue] name=org.freedesktop.Geoclue.Providers.Hostip path=/org/freedesktop/Geoclue/Providers/Hostip ; The location provider and adjustment method settings ; are in their own sections. [manual] lat=48.530344 lon=2.250073 and can the switch to gtk-redshift -l manual if needed for a fallback when geoclue-hostip won't work (and when I'm in Paris). I'm not sure the DEFAULT_PROVIDER and DEFAULT_PROVIDER_PATH in src /location-geoclue.c are valid outside the Ubuntu world, so hence the name and path...
