[SailfishDevel] qml PositionSource element gives error: QMetaMethod::invoke: Unable to handle unregistered datatype 'QGeoPositionInfo'

[christopher . lamb]

Hi all

I have added a QML PositionSource element to the FirstPage of the  
default HelloSailors new project, and call the start() method from  
Component.onCompleted (see code snippet below mail).

When running on the Emulator I get no error:

When running on a real Jolla I get the following error:

QMetaMethod::invoke: Unable to handle unregistered datatype 'QGeoPositionInfo'

I have the GPS enabled, I have used the maps app and agreed to the  
licence there.

On the device I have the following positioning packages installed:

[nemo@localhost ~]$ pkcon search name positioning

So far googling has brought no hints.

Any ideas?

import QtPositioning 5.2
....

    Component.onCompleted: {
        console.log("turning GPS on")
        positionSource.start();
    }

    PositionSource {
        id: positionSource
        updateInterval: 1000
        active: false
    }
