Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gpsd
/usr/share/doc/gpsd/README.Debian tells me gpsd could be started using hotplug,
but when I plug in the GPS receiver, the device (/dev/ttyUSB0) gets created,
but gpsd won't be started.
/etc/hotplug/usb/gpsd.hotplug exists, but apparently it doesn't get called.
Maybe this broke during the transition to udev?
Since the GPS receiver is usually not plugged in at bootup, I cannot
simply start gpsd in the default runlevel (the device doesn't exist). So
currently I have to start it manually. That's quite annoying.
