[gpsd-users] gpsd clients on debian 10 buster

[Charles Curley]

I just did a fresh install of Debian 10 (buster), and installed the gpsd
and gpsd-clients, both version 3.17-7. (Yes, I know: ancient.)

When I run xgps or xgpsspeed, I get:

charles@jhegaala:~$ xgps
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/xgps", line 29, in <module>
    import gi
ImportError: No module named gi
charles@jhegaala:~$

The Debian package lists the following dependencies:

Depends: libbluetooth3 (>= 4.91), libc6 (>= 2.27), libdbus-1-3 (>=
1.9.14), libncurses6 (>= 6), libtinfo6 (>= 6), libusb-1.0-0 (>=
2:1.0.8), libgps23 (= 3.17-7), python-gps, python-gtk2, python-cairo,
python:any

Am I missing a dependency?

of brute force."
