Public bug reported:

ensure that your device knows where it is (run unav or google maps in a
browser until you have a good fix) close location aware apps but leave
the phone on. Go for a nice long walk, and take a photos along the way
of flowers or some ducks or whatever takes your fancy. Your photos will
contain exif data including the GPS of your starting point as that
cached GPS position doesn't get updated.

The camera app should request a current location from location-services,
with a maximum age of zero, an old cached location is not useful in
determining where photos are taken
