Only if xgps and xgpsspeed would be removed from the gpsd-clients package.
Especially xgps is a really useful tool, so I'm not willing to remove them in
Debian. I'm sure that upstream wouldn't mind a patch which switches to a
different toolkit, preferable one that is platform independent (it should at
least work on *BSD and Linux) *and* is not a monster like gtk or qt. If somebody
is willing to write a patch, I can discuss it with upstream if they're willing
to accept it.
