redshift and gtk-redshift crash with memory violation error

[Andreas]

When I try to start redshift without arguments, this happens:

andreas@localhost:~$ gtk-redshift
** Message: a new manager occured at org.globalmenu.manager, :1.6

(process:18561): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_instance_get_private: assertion `instance != NULL && instance->g_class != NULL' failed
andreas@localhost:~$ redshift

(process:23585): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_instance_get_private: assertion `instance != NULL && instance->g_class != NULL' failed
Speicherzugriffsfehler

(Speicherzugriffsfehler = memory access violation)

So far I only tried the version available in the official repsoitories. I'm using 3.0.0-14-generic on Ubuntu 11.10, redshift 1.7.

OK, just found out, that the cl version works as soon as i provide lat/long informations with it. Same for the gtk version.
For new users it would probably be helpfull if above error message did'nt occur when not providing location information.

This is probably not a bug in redshift. Can you compile redshift with debug information and get a proper backtrace?
