Permissions to access the service are only checked whenever an app
establishes a connection to the location service. In fact, the trust
store should inform the service that permissions have changed, and the
service should react accordingly. I will mark trust-store as affected,
too.

Title:
  Still getting cached last location even if the permission is denied in
  system settings after the application started

Status in location-service package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in trust-store package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  With OTA5. Note that I don't know if the caching is done in location-
  service or is due to PositionSource Qt components.

  1. Starts an application with location capability, accept the location permission
  -> You have some console.log() callback on position changed
  2. Without closing the app, go to system settings and disable location permission for that app
  3. Put back your application in focus
  -> You will still see regular (at updateInterval refresh) console.log() callback onPositionChanged, firing the same QGeoCoordinate than the last known one.

  I guess it should send QGeoCoordinate(nan, nan, nan) (and should set
  the Error parameter) as when we can't theorically get the current
  position anymore.

  snippet:

  import QtPositioning 5.2
  import QtLocation 5.3

  PositionSource {
      active: true
      updateInterval: 120000 // 2 mins
      onPositionChanged: {
          console.log("coordinates " + positionSource.position.coordinate);
      }
  }
