Hi, the redshift package is old (1.2) I have asked to the maintainer

this new version required the pyxdg package, already in the repository.

A few questions:

The upload form is only for new package or also for updates like this one?

the makefile of redshift produce two executable, a command line executable
and a gui frontend.


it's worth it produce a patch for the makefile to build two different slackbuild
in order to produce only the commandline or only the gui frontend?


what is the slackbuild policy?
