How do I install Redshift 1.12 on Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon from source?

Redshift --------------- packages which are available in most distributions are dated 2016-01-02, which is > 2.5 years ago. Like on my system - Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon 64-bit - there is only 1.11 version available: $ apt-cache policy redshift redshift: Installed: (none) Candidate: 1.11-1ubuntu1 Version table: 1.11-1ubuntu1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/universe amd64 Packages Note, that Linux Mint 19 is based on the latest Ubuntu 18.04. That might be caused by too little commits made in version 1.12 . Either way, I personally find version 1.12 it a rather crucial step forward. ------------------------------- Question ------------- Anyway, my question is, how to install the newer version without adding any PPA? Let me re-phrase. How do I install Redshift 1.12 on Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon from source? Please do include basic settings and set-up as I am not yet familiar with its settings.
