This works fine! Is Kilian still active?
Can this please be merged? The bundled version of xflux did not work for me on Saucy Salamander (Ubuntu 13.10) and I had to manually download this binary to resolve the issue.
I'm hesitant to accept unchecked binaries. Is this the latest xflux downloaded from http://justgetflux.com/ ?
Feel free to verify yourself, but it certainly appears to be.
mdrob@mdrob-W530:~/workspace/f.lux-indicator-applet$ wget https://justgetflux.com/linux/xflux64.tgz -O- | tar xz -O | openssl sha1
(stdin)= f43d7118d9445f7df05f91d435feed4179e77e42
mdrob@mdrob-W530:~/workspace/f.lux-indicator-applet$ git checkout upstream/pr/29
HEAD is now at ba86838... New version of xflux.
mdrob@mdrob-W530:~/workspace/f.lux-indicator-applet$ openssl sha1 ./xflux

I'm not saying that a dedicated attacker wouldn't be able to create a collision, in which case you should get the binary from the site, but having the correct binary from any source would be useful.
Yup. Well, it was the latest when I downloaded it and it was from there.
If you're unsure you could replace it yourself and just close this request? Or have the app get the latest / point the user at the latest version / add "xflux" as a requirement to be installed first.
Yeah PPA from site does not work on ubuntu, mint, etc...only thing that works is xflux...but anybody who doesn't know much about linux would probably just give up
Latest version has been added :)
