Public bug reported:
The AppArmor profile contained in this package allows read access to a
configuration file at `@{HOME}/.config/redshift.conf` (see
https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/redshift/tree/data/apparmor/usr.bin.redshift.in?h=applied/ubuntu/devel#n39).
However, the correct path would be
`@{HOME}/.config/redshift/redshift.conf` (see
https://github.com/jonls/redshift?tab=readme-ov-file#how-do-i-setup-a-
configuration-file). Note the additional `redshift` subdirectory inside
the `.config` directory.
With the current profile, putting a config file in the location as
specified by Redshift documentation, the file cannot be opened and is
therefore ignored by Redshift. A workaround is putting the file in the
location specified in the AppArmor profile, as it seems that Redshift is
also looking for a file in that location (though not documented).
Ideally, the AppArmor profile should be changed to allow access to the
config file location as specified in the Redshift documentation. It
might also make sense to keep the existing access in the profile to the
file in the undocumented location for backwards compatibility.
