gpsd 2.94 is known to have python binding issues:
*From #gpsd in Freenode:
Aug 26 14:48:15 <lindi-> GNUtoo|laptop: hmm, 2.94 sounds suspicious, i think the python bindings were bit buggy at that time
*And I tried a python test program available here:
http://lindi.iki.fi/lindi/gpsd/gpsd-get-position3
It failed to print something when a fix was there
with 2.94 and succeded with 2.95
libtool.patch was rebased
configure-libusb.patch didn't need to be rebased as it landed upstream
