`The service` it should be `The foobar service`, which probably implies that something's misconfigured on your system.
(In reply to Vlad Zahorodnii from comment #1) > `The service` it should be `The foobar service`, which probably implies that > something's misconfigured on your system. geoclue2 is installed, the service is not running. When I start the service and re-open the SystemSettings the text doesn't change. Would you consider this a Tumbleweed bug? I've verified that the same happens with a new user account.
``` systemctl enable --now geoclue The unit files have no installation config (WantedBy=, RequiredBy=, UpheldBy=, Also=, or Alias= settings in the [Install] section, and DefaultInstance= for template units). This means they are not meant to be enabled or disabled using systemctl. Possible reasons for having these kinds of units are: • A unit may be statically enabled by being symlinked from another unit's .wants/, .requires/, or .upholds/ directory. • A unit's purpose may be to act as a helper for some other unit which has a requirement dependency on it. • A unit may be started when needed via activation (socket, path, timer, D-Bus, udev, scripted systemctl call, ...). • In case of template units, the unit is meant to be enabled with some instance name specified. ``` ``` systemctl status geoclue ● geoclue.service - Location Lookup Service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/geoclue.service; static) Active: active (running) since Mon 2025-11-03 13:03:21 CET; 3s ago Invocation: d8d7a9908dac4ec789f2df6ea43683ba Main PID: 7260 (geoclue) Tasks: 11 (limit: 38232) CPU: 48ms CGroup: /system.slice/geoclue.service └─7260 /usr/libexec/geoclue ```
This might be a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=497099 I'm also on openSUSE Tumbleweed. Geoclue2 is working with the demo-agent and where-am-i, however the day-night-cycle doesn't recognize the location and I entered the coords manually for now.
