Motivation for this change

redshift's systemd user units currently aren't installed. This installs them.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Assured whether relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

We might need to make changes to our nixos module to include these.
Additonally do these differ from the one we make at

systemd.user.services.redshift =

Just checked and we can't use these service files since we pass extra flags to the ExecStart in the unit based on the users specifed configuration. So I don't think we'll care about these in NixOS.

But I guess for other Linux distributions we should still have them installed.

Oh, I didn't know about the redshift options on NixOS. I usually use these at the user level because I have two accounts, one of which uses redshift and the other doesn't. There's currently no way to specify that in NixOS, though, as far as I can tell.

We can just override the ExecStart field in the module.
