[Bug 868904] [NEW] Redshift fails to start with session due to geoclue failure

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Ubuntu Foundations Team Bug Bot (crichton):

Since switching to oneiric redshift won't start.  It is listed as a
startup application and these lines are present in .xsession-error from
it:

    Unable to get location from provider.
    Started Geoclue provider `Geoclue Master'.
   Using provider `geoclue'.

There is also no process in a ps listing.  If I start it from the
command prompt then it starts just fine often with substantially similar
messages.
