Actually, Night Light just does not work.

Hi Patrick,

If Night Light is using geoclue, geoclue is
broken.

I just posted:

Geoclue: Access Denied
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1981569

:'(

I am succesfully using Night Light on F34, I am setting the activation 
times manually. Geoclue only makes sense if you are constantly traveling.

Sunrise and nightfall vary by three hours
in my parts.

Geoclue would make no sense at the equator

[Patrick Dupre]

redshift 
Trying location provider `geoclue2'...
Using provider `geoclue2'.
Using method `randr'.
Waiting for initial location to become available...

Waiting for ever

/usr/libexec/geoclue-2.0/demos/where-am-i

** (where-am-i:24615): CRITICAL **: 23:27:02.701: Failed to connect to GeoClue2 service: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: 'geoclue-where-am-i' disallowed, no agent for UID 0

Can I use redshift without geoclue2 ?

Yes. You'll need to create the config file
~/.config/redshift/redshift.conf if it doesn't already exist. There,
you can set your location provider to "manual" and then set your
location by hand. There's a sample configuration file[1] that'll show
you how to do it.

Yes

Go into
     ~/.config/redshift.conf

and set it to manual and set start and stop times

Light Night | redshift | geoclue

If you really, really want the magic to work and geoclue fails you need 
to give it the latitude and longitude and use a UTC clock.  It looks as 
if the position format is as below (for Munich via VPN from Taiwan ?).

Copenhagen (see below) would be 55.7 N, 12.6 E

man redshift:

Example for Copenhagen, Denmark:

$ redshift -l 55.7:12.6 -t 5700:3600 -g 0.8 -m vidmode -v
