Hello NoBugs!, or anyone else affected,

Accepted geoclue-2.0 into focal-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/geoclue-2.0/2.5.6-0ubuntu1.1 in a
few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Description changed:

  * Impact
  
  Disabling the location service in settings isn't reflection on
  traditional deb applications
  
  * Test case
  
  - Log in an Ubuntu desktop session
  - install geoclue-2-demo
  - go to gnome-control-center, privacy, location and ensure the service is 
disabled
  - $ /usr/libexec/geoclue-2.0/demos/where-am-i
  
  the script should return a permission error and not a location
  
  * Regression potential
  
+ [racb] Users who are currently relying on a working location service
+ despite having a setting disabling it will find that the location
+ service will stop working because the setting will start to be honoured.
+ 
  The change is in the client library, try a few applications, deb and
  snap or flatpak and make sure the status is correct respected
  
  -----------------------------
- 
  
  Not sure if this is the right package, but in the privacy -> location
  settings, in 18.04 I had to have my application be approved by user to
  access location with Geoclue. Now it seems this is working without the
  location services "enabled"??
  
  My application is repeater-START: https://sourceforge.net/projects
  /repeater-start/
  
  Steps to see issue:
  1) install Repeater-START and click the locate me button circle to the left. 
It goes to your rough location on map.
  
  2) Go to settings, privacy, location, note that location is turned off!?
