Eric maintains the clockmaker script. He wanted to keep it to make
a minimal gpsd. If that is not your goal too, then don't use it.

Sounds like a lot of work for little benefit. clockmaker, by design,
only installs in the user's home directory. That makes reversion trivial.
If you go beyond the clockmaker script, and install, it is in /usr/local/,
so also easy to revert.
I compile on my RasPi's, works well. Easier than using VM's.

Ugh...

Looks OK. I try to discourgage people not building all the drivers for
gpsd and ntpd. Partial builds are not well tested and can be problematic.

I see an ntpsec configure, but no gpsd configure?
No point looking at your ntpsec until your gpsd is good.
What does your gpsd configure show?
And what about my other questions?
