----------------------------------------------------------
I've taken a look at this, and the issue is two-fold.
First, for the Android platform, the geolocation plugin no longer patches
navigator.geolocation - it simply lets it fall through to the platform
implementation. So Ripple's logic for intercepting cordova.exec doesn't catch
this even when the plugin is installed. If you switch Ripple to a device that
uses a different Cordova platform (like an iOS device, for example), then
Ripple's geolocation emulation works (provided the plugin is installed).
The second part of the problem is that Ripple actually patches
navigator.geolocation directly - it is suppoed to work even if the plugin is
not installed. However, that logic fails - Ripple sets window.navigator
directly, which doesn't work. I have a fix which I'll check in shortly.
