Title:
  Redshift fails to start with session due to geoclue failure

Status in Redshift color temperature adjustment:
  Confirmed
Status in Ubuntu GeoIP Provider:
  New
Status in “redshift” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “ubuntu-geoip” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  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.
