Bug#740139: gnome-maps fails to start

[Marcus Lundblad]

Package: gnome-maps
Version: 3.10.2-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Trying to start gnome-maps I get the following stderr output:

    JS ERROR: !!!   Exception was: Gio.DBusError: Error calling
StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.GeoClue2:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Launch helper exited

Is it somehow possible to start the geoclue2 dbus service manually to try and
debug this?

Sincerly,
