As others have said, we can't support 4.5 year old code.  We have more
than enough work to do on 3.19~dev.

As I have aked before, where is velD?

Yup.  I gave you a detailed code revue.  But the initial items
remain:
        1. get on the git head code base
        2. send us a patch for gps.h

And I told you a few messages back why.  But, firt things first, your
need to do #1 and #2 long before we can fix filed values.

Looks like you applied none of my comments to your code.  No  point
repeating that advice until #1 and #2 is done.

In another message you refer to yocto.  I have worked with people
using gpsd and yocto, that is no reason to be stuck on such old
gpsd code.  Using 3.19!dev with yocto should be very simple and we
will help with that.
