v2.0.1

Highlights

• Fixed: daemon not switched over when upgrading from cosmic-flux via sudo. The post-install script could neither stop the old cosmic-flux-daemon nor enable the new unit from a sudo context (no access to the user session bus), leaving the old daemon running from a deleted binary until the next login. The service is now enabled system-wide via systemctl --global enable, with a best-effort immediate stop/start for the installing user.
• If you already upgraded to v2.0.0 and hit this, either log out and back in, or run:

  systemctl --user stop cosmic-flux-daemon
  systemctl --user enable --now cosmic-ext-flux-daemon

• Reminder from v2.0.0: re-add the Flux applet to your panel once (the App ID changed) via Settings > Desktop > Panel > Applets. See the v2.0.0 notes for everything in the rename release.

Install

Add the Flux applet to your panel via Settings > Desktop > Panel > Applets.
