Bug description:
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ system-image-cli -i
current build number: 237
device name: krillin
channel: ubuntu-touch/ubuntu-rtm/14.09-proposed
last update: 2015-02-17 17:04:34
version version: 237

You can easily see if the GPS is active or not by checking the logcat
output (running as root). In this case the hardware remains on
(consumed by the location-service) after opening a scope such as the
weather channel one, and retrieving location.
To reproduce:
1 - Reboot the phone;
2 - Open logcat as root: sudo /system/bin/logcat
3 - From today's scope, click on the weather icon (opening the weather
channel scopes)
4 - See that the GPS is active and location works as expected
5 - Move away from that scope, and check logcat's output (it will stay
active, meaning that the location-service is still active).
