Package: foxtrotgps
Version: 1.2.1-1

Hi,
libgps changed the gps_read implementation in [0].
To be clear the change in gpsd is currently only in experimental. This
is a heads up for the post buster transition that will come sooner or
later.

Uptream foxtrotgps has already fixed that in [1] The change isn't too
hard and will be compatible with older versions. That fix is
unfortunately
not yet in the version 1.2.1 that I found in Debian.
I found no VCS and didn't see it on salsa, so I'll provide a debdiff
to help. Since it is transparent (can be applied before the GPSD
transition) I'd appreciate if you could include this change in
when-/whatever the next upload to foxtrotgps will happen. I'll let the
gpsd maintainer know about the bug, so that we can consider it when
kicking off the transition.
