Re: Cross compile gpsd-3.20.1~dev for arm with buildroot

[Florian Kiera]

Weren't able to test today, will do that tomorrow! Also a question 
regarding installing from gitlab. Installing gpsd with scons doesn't 
seem to set the python options. Whenever I try to run ubxtool it says 
"Could not find gps, check your PYTHONPATH" or something along those 
lines, how can I fix that?

Regards Florian
