Hi @yochananmarqos! I noticed your latest clightd-git bump to move clightd.service to correct folder.
This is now fixed in clightd master, thus you can remove the workaround! Btw thanks for this, as looking at the change I noticed i was using the wrong path!
If you happen to find other build related quirks, it would be great if you'd open an issue on github! Thank you :)

@coldspark: Clear your build cache, there's nothing to fix.

The sources can't be downloaded from GitHub. The script is failing. Can you please fix it?

Hi! Yup it is most probably a limit of the external monitor.
I think the transition will never be as smooth as internal laptop monitor, unfortunately.
As you already noticed, monitor feedback is often slower and less smooth.

@Nierro, thanks for the response. I think that this issue is more to do with the stepping algorithm of my particular monitor. I have attempted using the minimum brightness stepping and interval in tandem. It isn't a smooth transition. I think that this is due to clight using ddcutil for controlling the monitor's brightness. If so, I know that my monitor can only do increments of 5%. (I have an old Dell3007). When running ddcutil interrogate I also see that there is a read error for the monitor's VCP version. It could very well be that the monitor is not standards compliant or just not supported.

@CaninoDev hi! I am clightd developer!
You can customize Clight smoothing steps by changing /etc/default/clight.conf file!

@CaninoDev: That would be a question to ask the developer.

@yochananmarqos Apologies, I just realized that that warning only occurred during the general update and not specific to this package. I deleted the comment to reduce noise.

In any event thanks for being responsive! As a side note, is there away to make transitions even smoother (or is this entirely monitor dependent and depends on the monitors stepping settings?)
