Hi,
Currently, I cannot use master provider to get position of my computer (it's a
laptop, and the only working location provider is hostip). Therefore, I worked
on bugs #22160 and #22416 to try to fix that.

I'm quite used to printf style debugging, and also have a really limited
knowledge. So, I had difficulties debugging the providers code: they are
launched by dbus, and I don't have access to their stout and stderr.

So I wonder, in case I need to work more on geoclue, or other software of this
kind if you known some useful tricks to get stdout/stderr of providers code, or
some better way to debug quickly.

thansk a lot
