Use the standard 10110/TCP port instead of a dynamically selected port about gps-share HOT 5 CLOSED

firewalld's Fedora Workstation configuration already has all user-accessible ports opened, fwiw.

oh cool, I didn't know of this. I do agree but i didn't understand what you mean by "upstream" here. There are no changes needed geoclue as it gets the port from avahi. We need changes to gps-share (and geoclue-share android app if I understood you correctly?) but we should still allow user to specify a different port.

geoclue-share already uses this port by default. No change needed there.

gps-share needs to be changed to use this port by default instead of a random port (unless overwritten with --port ####).

“upstream” here refers to the firewall projects firewalld, ufw, and others. I’ll submit a generic nmea-0183 service that allows connections on port 10110. As it’s an IANA registered port, upstream should be willing to accept the new service definition (a named preset). The end goal is to allow users to easily configure their firewalls with something like firewall-cmd --zone=local --add-service=nmea-0183 to allow remote connections to gps-share from the local network.

@da2x alright, awesome stuff. :) I guess my GSoC student (who wrote gps-share) was smarter than me. :) I'm hoping you'll be providing a patch for gps-share too? ;)
