Any patches on that bug are obsolete for an year now since geoclue2 is
a different beast than geoclue1. Not only geoclue1 is totally
unmaintained for years, we ripped the whole repository (since geoclue2
was a complete re-write) so it doesn't make any sense now to use
geoclue1.
Based on your recommendation, I closed bug 485472 because geoclue 1 is
obsolete. Work to integrate geoclue2 should happen in a new bug to avoid
confusion.
Please note that writing the code to use geoclue2 is not on our team's
roadmap, but patches are happily accepted. <:)
