            Bug ID: 97434
           Summary: Redshift Does not work under Wayland
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: wayland
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: stevengruspier at gmail.com

THE BUGS
When using Wayland, Redshift does not change colors according to color
profiles. Under X11, this does work.

As far as I and have been told, Wayland/Weston does not currently have an API
for changing these sorts of settings in user space.

EXPECTED
The screen is expected to become more "reddish" as time changes throughout the
day/night to relieve eye strain.

BACKGROUND
Some background for those not familiar with redshift:

OTHER
This is a deal breaker for using Wayland for people such as myself.
