Hello,

geoclue2 should be especially configured to allow applications to
request the location. Add something like that in :

[redshift]
allowed=true
system=false
users=

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Redshift#Failed_to_run_Redshift_due_to_geoclue2

I'm not 100% sure if there is an other way to do so without modifying
the config.

I would also suggest you to disable the old geoclue support, I really
would like to remove the package from the archive.

Cheers,

Laurent Bigonville
