Service daemon for mediating access to a GPS
gpsd is a service daemon that mediates access to a GPS sensor connected
to the host computer by serial or USB interface, making its data on the
location/course/velocity of the sensor available to be queried on TCP
port 2947 of the host computer. With gpsd, multiple GPS client
applications (such as navigational and wardriving software) can share
access to a GPS without contention or loss of data. Also, gpsd
responds to queries with a format that is substantially easier to parse
than NMEA 0183. A client library is provided for applications.
After installing this RPM, gpsd will automatically connect to USB GPSes
when they are plugged in and requires no configuration. For serial
GPSes, you will need to start gpsd by hand. Once connected, the daemon
automatically discovers the correct baudrate, stop bits, and protocol.
The daemon will be quiescent when there are no clients asking for
location information, and copes gracefully when the GPS is unplugged
and replugged.

Revision 48 (latest revision is 64)
- Correct flag to disable stripping (nostrip=True) - Add gpsd-declaration-in-for-loop.patch to remove c99 construction (backport from upstream), fixes building for Leap-42.3 - Upstream changed location of gpsd in systemd gpsd.service file (change it back to {_sbindir}) - Update to version 3.18.1 * Fix some installation issues. * A few minor updates to ubxtool and driver_ubx. * Add contrib/skyview2svg - Update to version 3.18.0 * Add ECEF support to ievermore, italk,Skytraq, SiRF, U-blox drivers. * Add ECEF support to JSON, cgps and xgps. * Add GREIS (Javad) driver from Virgin Orbit. * Add CLI tools zerk and ubxtool to manage JAVAD and u-blox GPS. * Add gnssid:svid to satellite_t, cgps and xgps. PRN will die. * Add gnssid:svid to JSON, cgps and xgps. * Add stricter version checking (more to todo). * More and better regression tests. * Better Python dependency checking, at build time and runtime. * Fix several buffer issues. * New polar plots, and improved statistice, in gpsprof. * gpsd master/slave mode works, first time ever. * All isnan() changed to !isfinite(), fixing many bugs. * Client-side Python libraries may automatically reconnect * Too many other bug fixes and improvements to mention. * Over 1,000 commits from 46 different commiters. - Update to version 3.17.0 * Repair support for non-NMEA devices requring active probing (e.g. Garmin USB GPSes). * Fix a SiRF driver bug that occasionally confused NTP. * Support for Spectratime iSync GRClok and LNRClok oscillators. * gpxlogger can reconnect when the GPS loses the fix. * xgps and xgpsspeed moved to python-gi, getting shut of the deprecated pygtk2 bindings. * Default mode for xgpsspeed is now the more interesting nautical display. * gpsmon includes the hostname with the device display. gpsprof now has centimeter precision. - Remove patch: * gpsd-python3.patch (not longer needed) - Update gpsd.keyring (old key 8C6C738D got superseeded by 0C898D47 )
