Service daemon for mediating access to a GPS

Edit Package gpsd

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.

- Allow building without python2 available

- Add 0001-Make-sure-Qgpsmm.pc-is-usable.patch to fix the bogus values
  in qgpsmm.pc
- Update the URLs

- Update to version 3.19
  * Rearrange rawdata_t.  Bump the API because gps_data_t changed.
  * Report sequence-ID fields in type 7 and 13 AIS messages.
  * Preliminary support for SiRFstar V
  * Improve error modeling.
  * Update pseudo NMEA to v3.0, with fractional time.
  * Improve cycle detection, mostly for NMEA.
  * Move epe from gps_data_t to be near its friends in gps_fix_t.
  * Preliminary u-blox 9 support.
  * Add qErr in gps_data_t to store PPS quantization error.
  * Add Android (AOSP) support
  * Improved multi gnss and multi signal support.
  * NMEA 4.10 multi gnss multi signal support.
  * The arguments to "ubxtool -p P" have been expanded and changed.
  * New options, -g, -x, -z, added to ubxtool for u-blox 9 support.
- Drop gpsd-declaration-in-for-loop.patch
