Please could you expand on the "Impact" section? I don't currently
follow how this bug affects actual users.

There is also the conffile prompt to consider. What if a user installs
this update, has a modified /etc/default/gpsd, but doesn't see the
prompt? Will that system not receive this fix? For the SRU, would it be
better to adjust /lib/systemd/system/[email protected] to handle a not-
set USBAUTO variable? I'm unable to assess this because I don't yet
understand the problem you're trying to fix.

> >=Groovy set default to true, but we will set false for Focal to not
   change behavior on SRU (adding the variable still is useful as people
   can modify it much more easily than adding - or knowing about - it)

Won't that cause an unwanted conffile prompt on future release upgrade?
