The change is in the client library, try a few applications, deb and snap or flatpak and make sure the status is correct respected ----------------------------- Not sure if this is the right package, but in the privacy -> location settings, in 18.04 I had to have my application be approved by user to access location with Geoclue. Now it seems this is working without the location services "enabled"?? My application is repeater-START: https://sourceforge.net/projects /repeater-start/ Steps to see issue: 1) install Repeater-START and click the locate me button circle to the left. It goes to your rough location on map. 2) Go to settings, privacy, location, note that location is turned off!?
