[Bug 1448180] [NEW] QGeoSatelliteInfoSource::createDefaultSource() returns NULL on the bq phone

 

Public bug reported:

Device: bq Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition
Operating System: Ubuntu 14.10 (r21)

I am currently trying to build a clone of the "GPS Status" Android app,
it displays various details about the built-in GPS receiver.

According to the developer documentation at
http://developer.ubuntu.com/api/qml/sdk-14.10/QtLocation.location-
positioning-cpp/ , a call to
QGeoSatelliteInfoSource::createDefaultSource() can be used to get access
to the default Satellite positioning source implementation.

On my device this call returns NULL.

Sample code is located at https://github.com/Sturmflut/ubuntu-touch-
simple-gps/tree/3da3dc5f089e698c34765fd18322b84727cb13ae , the call in
question is located at backend/modules/Simplegps/gpsdataprovider.cpp . I
attached the file and its header for future reference.
