I am reopening this bug since we don't know yet if we will disable
location services later.

Title:
Disable location services
Thank you for the feedback. The Ubuntu Desktop team is reverting this
gnome-control-center behavior change and will keep location services
enabled for now (even after 46.1). We'll see how things go later in the
year.

My proposal here was only for showing location features in gnome-
control-center.
I guess we'll need to SRU geoclue eventually but I don't think that's

Marco,
Context: Scarlett is the lead for Kubuntu, so she's looking at it from a
KDE Plasma perspective, which for her packaging purposes would need a
dpkg-divert to switch the geoclue.conf to something else, but that's not
exactly a problem for her as it's not a package they ship by default.

Scarlett,
Ubuntu Studio has `plasma-wallpaper-dynamic` which pulls-in

positioning by default for us. Apparently, it says this:

available), or by sending networ
Not sure how affected we are. Nightcolor uses geoclue which is disabled
by default and I guess users will have to use the google option when the
time comes ( not necessarily easy, but an option. ) We do not have

I actually agree with Marco. If the fallback is GeoIP, maybe it's
premature to patch this out. GeoIP is "good enough".

When mozilla service is not used, GeoIP is used instead. It's not
perfect (especially if using a VPN) but it's good enough to provide
features such as automatic-timezone and night light.
