Description jannis 2012-07-03 07:19:09 UTC
On my system I have a blocker since gimp depends on webkit, which depends on geoclue which is not compatible with latest gpsd.
To get around this (apart from USE-flag acrobatics), the patch from upstream-bug at URL could help to get geoclue work with latest gpsd.

Of course we could just wait until upstream makes a new release but the current one is a bit old and they don't seem to release often ...

Reproducible: Always
