Package: gpsd
Version: 2.28-2
Severity: wishlist

The man page says:

       -f     Set  a GPS device name. This option is deprecated and may be re-
              moved in a future version. Each command-line  argument  will  be
              treated  as  a  device  to  be probed for the presence of a GPS;
              that, rather than the -f option, is the preferred way of  speci-
              fying GPS devices at startup.

Please add "if no device name is given, /dev/ttyS0 will be used as a
default" here, even though /dev/ttyS0 is indeed mentioned in FILES.

Otherwise, one has a hard time figuring out if "device name" means
like "GARMIN_1" or /dev/ttySomething, etc.
