Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/redshift-gtk", line 26, in from redshift_gtk.statusicon import run File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/redshift_gtk/statusicon.py", line 44, in from . import utils File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/redshift_gtk/utils.py", line 23, in from xdg import BaseDirectory as base ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'xdg'

Install the xdg module. If you installed Redshift from packages provided by your distribution, you should contact your distribution and ask them to install the correct dependencies.

I just had the same error. It seems the version of the xdg module installed for python3.6 has no BaseDirectory in it.

I think redshift-gtk wants this package https://pypi.org/project/pyxdg/ while in python3 if you install xdg you get this package https://pypi.org/project/xdg/

In my case, the solution was pip3 uninstall xdg. I then tried pip3 install pyxdg but I was told it was already installed (maybe from a system package?), and sure enough, redshift-gtk now runs agani.
