Multiple processes for Redshift are running in the background #818

Open ANN-4-BE-11-A opened 3 years ago

ANN-4-BE-11-A commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug Multiple processes for Redshift are running in the background.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install Redshift for the first time
  2. Launch Redshift
  3. Set Redshift to autostart from the system tray
  4. Reboot the device
  5. Open a system monitor program such as GNOME System Monitor
  6. Look for "redshift"
  7. See multiple processes for Redshift running

Expected behavior I think that there should be one or only a few processes running in the background.

Error output/logs/screenshots Screenshot of the multiple processes seen using GNOME System Monitor.

Software versions:

I'm on Ubuntu MATE 21.04 and the same thing happens. Does htop show other processes running in multiple?

SimonDedman commented 3 years ago

Same thing for xubuntu 21.04 after upgrade from 20.10. Only one instance in startup programs & in panel but 2 instances running, seemingly independently (I can disable/enable them independently in the panel). Closing one instance causes it to restart automatically.
