xflux/f.lux

I want to install f.lux but it requires an unsupported ppa.  I was wondering if anyone has installed it manually following instructions on https://github.com/xflux-gui/fluxgui and if they had any problems?

Would it not be easier to use Redshift instead?

Thanks, didn't know it existed, I'll give it a go.

Code:

sudo apt-get install redshift redshift-gtk

Thanks again.

You're welcome

I have installed it using the ppa. On LL 3.2 it didn't have any issues, but I've just installed LL 4, and I can't seem to make it work. The program acts like it's working, but when I try to preview different settings or even have it running in the evening, the screen does not change at all. I've tried other programs, but I prefer f.lux, so I'd like to get it working properly. I'm just not sure what the issue is - anyone have any suggestions?
