Public bug reported:

As the freedesktop.org upstream is kinda dead, but geoclue seems to be
ina  bit of development in Ubuntu I'm filing the bug here, too.

gpsd 3.3 (currently in Debian experimental) comes with a new API (v5)
and geoclue will fail to build against it. IMHO the whole gpsd provider
should be rewritten - parsing NMEA is not really the best way to handle
gps data. Enough examples should be shipped with gpsd's source code.

don't hesitate to ask if you have questions :)
