How do I disable the location bubble in gnome-maps? I'm using i3 and don't have most of the gnome-settings packages installed, but it seems like even if you disable location services in gnome, the blue bubble still appears.
I've tried sudo sed -i s/true/false/g /etc/geoclue/geoclue.conf so that gnome-maps doesn't have access to geoclue, but geoclue still starts up and reports a location. I've even tried chmod 000 /usr/libexec/geoclue with killall -9 /usr/libexec/geoclue and the location still appears.
Is there a gconf setting that lets me disable location entirely in gnome-maps? I'm on a desktop machine in my apartment. It's not going to move. I really don't need a dot to tell me where I am.
Running the command
sudo systemctl mask geoclue.servicein Terminal works for me.
