Bug Description

my setup :
    redshift -l 48.4:-4.5 -b 1:0.8 -t 5000:4000 -g 1.4:1.05:0.7
but it occurs the same with :
    redshift -l 48.4:-4.5
my computer is a :
    Lenovo V110-15ISK
uname -rvpi :
    4.18.0-15-generic #16-Ubuntu SMP Thu Feb 7 10:56:39 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64
(up-to-date and rebooted)

It looks like redshift is randomly disabled and enabled back, the period of disablement seems varying but it is in enabled state most of the time.

It's very annoying

Okay, I seem to have found what triggers it. The problem is no more after disabling gnome's night mode, 'killall redshift' then running it again

running it again after 'redshift -x', since otherwise it modifies the previously modified colors... But this is another story (another bug ?)
