Hi All,
Fedora 35
redshift-1.12-13.fc35.x86_64
geoclue2-2.5.7-6.fc35.x86_64
If I manually start geoclue
# systemctl start geoclue.service
as root, redshift can communicate with
geoclue2 and redshift works fine.
But redshift can not start geoclue,
unless geoclue was started as root first:
$ redshift
Waiting for initial location to become available...
Unable to start GeoClue client:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied:
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.
can not start geoclue as a standard user
(group = 500 or users).
I have redshift in /etc/geoclue/geoclue.conf:
[redshift]
allowed=true
system=false
users=
Redshift is "suppose" to be able to start geoclue
manually as a user.
What gives?
Many thanks,
-T
