           Summary: Marble does not use GPS through gpsd.
           Product: marble
           Version: 21.12.2
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect u-blox7 GPS connector. Open `cgps` to check it works fine.
2. Open Marble.
3. Select `gpsd` in `Location` > `Position Tracking`.

OBSERVED RESULT

Although the `cpgs` program shows I have a 3D FIX and gives me my exact
location and GPS-coordinates, Marble keeps on "waiting for current location
information...".

EXPECTED RESULT

Marble uses my GPS USB Dongle and detects my position just like the `cgps` CLI
tool.

manager at 18 March 2022)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
