[NOTE] Conflict gnome-settings-daemon and redshift with 3.24 upgrade

Hello everyone,

I got a problem after upgrading Gnome to 3.24 which is likely to happen to every user of Gnome and redshift : in fact, gnome-settings-daemon being in conflict with gnome-settings-daemon-redshift, you must uninstall the latter in order to re install the former. If not, you won't be able to start (will fail to start the settings-deamon during init).

Have a good day,
vincentm

Just to add - Gnome 3.24 now has its owns redshift-like functionality built-in, so removing redshift shouldn't be an issue.

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan

True. But the built-in "Night Light" is incredibly reddish and cannot be configured.

True. But the built-in "Night Light" is incredibly reddish and cannot be configured.

I can find an interesting entry when I run this here:

gsettings list-recursively | grep night

I mean that entry that has "temperature" in its name and is set to a value "4000". I'd try to see what happens when you do for example this:

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.color night-light-temperature 5500

I have Gnome installed but I'm not using it right now so I can't test this myself.

Thanks for the useful hint!

You can change it by using dconf-editor.

The path is: org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/color/
