Hello,
[ Reason ]
Currently, geoclue-2.0 in stable is using the Mozilla Location Service,
but MLS is now retired, meaning that geoclue cannot guess the location
of the user anymore.
beaconDB is being considered as a replacement by upstream:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/geoclue/geoclue/-/issues/192
Debian unstable is already using beaconDB
[ Impact ]
geoclue cannot guess the location of the user anymore, applications
using its API will not work as expected
[ Tests ]
Smoketesting testing has been done in a bookworm VM
[ Risks ]
The code change is trivial, the main risk is a privacy one, but they try
to be privacy minded
Privacy statement of beaconDB can be found at: https://beacondb.net/privacy/
[ Checklist ]
[X] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
[X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
[X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
[ Changes ]
* Change of the URL for geolocation and submit the AP and location information
(if enabled)
* Cherry-pick a patch that upstream requested to add SSID in addition to MAC
addresses to the queries
* Update the debian/README.Debian
