First of all I installed the redshift plasmoid from the “add graphic elements” option on the desktop. But it does not work well since I notice a flicker on the screen and uninstall it.
Then add the repo kde: extra and install the plasmoid-redshift but I can not find it when I’m going to add graphic elements.
I have got the same problem.
This is my solution that works for me.
I have got screen flickering because I have got 2 processes running, one by root and second by user.
I have killed the first one running by root.
I have uninstalled redshift and plasmoid-redshift.
I have installed redshift again.
I have added Redshift plasmoid widget using Add interface elements.
Restart system
After that redshift works and I have got only one process running by user.
