f.lux

Hi,

Does anyone know how to get flux to work on Arch?
The AUR package is broken:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/fluxgui/

And official site only provides ubuntu support:
https://justgetflux.com/linux.html

Did anyone get it to work?

As an (open source) alternative, try redshift, it is in the community repo.

EDIT: If you are really bent on making f.lux work, make sure you have read their privacy policy on what data they collect from you.

Thanks man. I installed redshift and it works reasonably well.

I've managed to install fluxgui, there was need to change one dependency and then fix another one from AUR. I could check what it was  exactly if you still need that.

Maybe just reading the comments is enough https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/fluxgui/
