This might be a bug in gpsd and update-manager - not sure about it.I'm not able
to reproduce it on Debian, though.
The last update brought some sanety checks for the configuration, so it might
happen that a debconf questions pops up although gpsd seemed to be configured
correctly before, while the chosen configuration was never able to work
properly. I can try to debug this if I can get the /etc/default/gpsd from before
the update and probably some more informations about which version was
installaed and so on.
