Bug Description
Impact
======
gnome-maps has a new upstream bugfix release for all supported versions.
The new release downloads a service.json file from GNOME that indicates the current preferred map tile server. (This is useful in case of provider changes as happened with bug 1602035). In the previous bugfix release, all requests for tiles went through a GNOME.org proxy which introduced noticeable lag.
The other change is that the Mapbox attribution overlay logo is now transparent instead of being embedded in a gray rectangle. (This doesn't seem to work in trusty where there's still a gray rectangle.)

Test Case
=========
After installing the update, open the Maps app. Scroll around, zoom in and out.
Regression Potential
=======
Low. This is a GNOME bugfix release that the developer is strongly encouraging that distributors distribute.
