Bug Description

geoclue-providers currently depends on the NBS libgps21 and needs to be ported against libgps22. A mere no-change rebuild does not work:

geoclue-gpsd.c: In function 'gpsd_raw_hook':
geoclue-gpsd.c:379:31: error: 'gps_data_l {aka struct gps_data_t}' has no member named 'tag'
  char *tag_str = gpsd->gpsdata->tag;
                               ^
geoclue-gpsd.c: In function 'main':
geoclue-gpsd.c:534:2: warning: 'g_type_init' is deprecated [-Wdeprecated-declarations]
  g_type_init ();
  ^

so some porting is required.

However, geoclue-providers is an Ubuntu specific splitout. geoclue-gpsd has zero reverse dependencies, and geoclue-gypsy is only depended on by cordova-ubuntu. cordova-ubuntu itself has no reverse dependencies and looks rather dead.

So in the simplest case we could just remove cordova-ubuntu and geoclue-providers. If cordova-ubuntu is still desired, geoclue-providers should be synced with geoclue, ported to new libgps or drop the -gpsd binary package.

cordova-ubuntu can be removed from the archive, it's only managed as a github/npm module now

geoclue-providers is showing up on http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/ftbfs/

Should 0.12.99-2ubuntu4 be removed too?
