geoclue_master_client_set_requirements() has a parameter
"require_updates". Setting that to FALSE should make the master client
use network based providers even without networkmanager or conic (there
won't be "changed" signals of course), but now that I test it doesn't
seem to work. I'll look into it and let you know.
