Color adjustments are applied to cursor twice #881
Description
Describe the bug
Whatever color adjustments are being made to the screen, be it temperature and/or brightness, it's applied to the cursor twice, making it visibly redder and/or darker than everything else.
- I have checked the FAQ and my issue is not mentioned there.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Install redshift on EndeavourOS
- Apply any color adjustment, manual or automatic
- Observe cursor
Expected behavior
Adjustments are applied equally to the cursor as to the rest of the screen

Notes
RX 580, xf86-video-amdgpu 23.0.0-1, settings unchanged from default other than enabling tearfree
Noticed this happening after installing EndeavourOS earlier this week. Was not an issue on Manjaro before. I still have the Manjaro install in case there are any settings you need me to look at there.
Software versions (please complete the following information):
- OS: Linux
- Redshift version: 1.12
- Distribution: EndeavourOS
- Redshift installed from: Arch community repos

Seeing this as well after I did a
pacmanupgrade on my Arch system. I can try and bisect which package(s) might be related to this issue, if that'll help anyone.EDIT: Haven't had time to do this, sorry, but I do notice that I am also using an RX 580 with xf86-video-amdgpu 23.0.0-1.

For anyone hitting this issue, it might(?) be linked to this issue - or at least, that's where I found a workaround for now. For me, setting:
in my xorg config seemed to fix it as a workaround for now.

Also getting the same issue with an RX 580, on nixos unstable. DE is gnome 48.2, using amdgpu drivers from the kernel.
