Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

ii  gpsd-tools     3.25-3ubuntu3 amd64        Global Positioning System
- tools

Calling the gpsmon utility from this package, it should show the current GPS 
status
of the connected GPS (LEA 6M). Instead it segfaults and is therefore unusable.

Tracing this, the problem is a double delwin(), ie. double-free of
devicewin, in lines 517 and 521 of gpsmon.c

Apparently this bug has been fixed upstream in 
https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/commit/bc840b0d3ba65d3d8fe2b7faeadd5af5ed2b5e60

I have tested this patch indeed solves the problem, at least in my case.

Regards,
Mario
