Description:	gpsd is a service daemon that mediates access to a GPS sensor
                connected to the host computer by serial or USB interface,
                making its data on the location/course/velocity of the
                sensor available to be queried on TCP port 2947 of the host
                computer.  With gpsd, multiple GPS client applications (such
                as navigational and wardriving software) can share access to
                a GPS without contention or loss of data.  Also, gpsd responds
                to queries with a format that is substantially easier to parse
                than NMEA 0183.
                
                After installing this RPM, gpsd will try to start up at
                boot time.  If your distribution does not use udevd, you must
                manually create a symlink named /dev/gps to the serial or USB
                port that your GPS will plug in to (normally this will be
                /dev/ttyUSB0 or /dev/ttyS0).  The daemon will be quiescent
                when there are no clients asking for location information,
                and copes gracefully when the GPS is unplugged.
