I've been fiddling with ubxtool some, and noticed a problem. Scenario:
A u-Blox receiver with no antenna connected. So no fixes, but
communication (USB) otherwise works.
If I do "./ubxtool -f <port> -p VER", it works.
If I do "gpsd -n <port>" and then "./ubxtool -p VER", it works. The
installed gpsd is 3.18.1
If I do "./gpsd -n <port>" and then "./ubxtool -p VER", it gets no
response. This is with the latest gpsd 3.19-dev.
I suspect that the rework related to fixes is keeping messages from
getting through when there's no fix. Aside from control messages that
have nothing to do with fixes, the receiver sometimes sends NAV messages
even without a fix, and it doesn't make sense to hide them.
I can bisect if needed, but this is probably easily reproducible.
