Thank you @Fred and @valent! This has been bugging me for ages. Though I lived with it by hardcoding my location, it was still really annoying when traveling.

I prepared a debdiff for saucy adding a dependency on geoclue-hostip. But I also took a look for geoclue-ubuntu-geoip bugs and sure enough, I found LP bug 1239082 which seems to confirm that it is broken in general.

So I'll upload this first debdiff, as adding a dependency on geoclue-hostip does solve the problem alone, and perhaps the ubuntu-geoip provider will be fixed later.
