Not at present, I'm afraid. What would you suggest? Obviously, I can
kick off the process of trying to get a fix into gpsd upstream. That
could be a slow process; so, in the meantime, is it acceptable to have
this (ugly, but small) patch in Buildroot?

You're quite right: there is no need for the Python version to be the
same on host and target. I'll remove this spurious dependency in the
next iteration of the patch.

Simon.
