Jeremy, thanks for the link! This dependency is now dropped in Qt 5.6.1 packages in Debian unstable, so this will be fixed in Ubuntu when we get Qt 5.6 merged.

I think it's definitely doable by 14.04 or at least by 14.10 if we work at it. I haven't been able to find a .manifest or germinate output for Ubuntu Phone but I'm guessing gconf is neither needed nor wanted there. It looks like qtlocation only depends on geoclue because it things geoclue uses it. However, geoclue 0.12.99 (included in Quantal and up) uses gsettings not gconf.[1] Therefore I don't think that part of the qtlocation code even works.
