Hi Aaron
Thanks for you rapid answer. I am on my way to work, I will play
around with this further when I get back home this evening (Swiss Time).
So far, on both the N9 and Jolla I used the presence of the GPS icon
as an indication that it was running / not running.
Once I have run the tests you suggest I will update this thread,
Cheers
Chris

I will call this a behaviour for the moment. Yesterday I noticed that
if an app that uses the GPS exits without stopping the GPS, then the
GPS remains running on the Jolla.
How did you confirm this? Presence of the Location icon on the lock screen?
I compared this to my Nokia N9. On that device if an app using the GPS
exits (e.g. the user closes it), then the GPS stops soon after that
app has exited (even if the app does not explicitly shut the GPS down).
On the N9 this even works with multiple apps open using the GPS. In
this test, when the last GPS-consuming app exits, the GPS shuts down.
This is expected to work. Both the Geoclue master and the provider processes
monitor DBus disconnections and will clean up any associated interfaces. The
provider processes will then close 30 seconds after there are no more
connections.
How to test that geoclue-master is working:
Run
/usr/lib/qt5/bin/qdbus org.freedesktop.Geoclue.Master | grep
'/org/freedesktop/Geoclue/Master/client' | wc -l
to see how many processes have started positioning.
Run the above command, expect 0
Run sailfish-maps
Run the above command, expect 1
pkill -9 sailfish-maps
Run the above command, expect 0
It is harder to test this functionality in the providers as the number of
connections are not readily available.
Can you check whether there are any client interfaces exported by geoclue-
master with the above command. Also what geoclue processes are
running (ps aux
| grep geoclue).
Cheers,
